About Shelina

I am currently a sophomore attending Harold Washington College and majoring in biology with plans to transfer to a 4 year university, to withhold a bachelor's and master's degree in Biological Science, with plans of having a doctoral degree after 4 years of medical school. Some volunteer work includes the help of shaping and curing the children of La Rabida Children Hospital for nearly 1 year. Not only did I fulfill the specific job duties, but also networking at Chicago State University PREP Program, has granted me the opportunity to become a proud member NSBE (National Society of Black Engineers) Corporations and STEM Education Coalition.

One of the reasons that makes me who I am as a caregiver is the compassion that I have in my heart for my clients and their families. I am a person of integrity, honesty, dependability and concern. It's about giving of myself to my clients and having a sense of the quality of life concerning the lifestyle they have. When I come into their presence a smile comes on their face. I will show the passion, give the encouragement, and hope they will have the confidence that I will know exactly what to do concerning their plan of care. I became a caregiver because of my mother's influence. Listening to her talk about her clients was interesting and heart warming and sometimes I felt sad and wanted to help, so I did! The rewards of being a caregiver is caring for those who cannot care for themselves or just needing a little help. Always understanding what care consists of at all times regardless of the situations and circumstances whether it's to assist or just HELP. I love what I do as a caregiver because I have a compassionate heart.
