I trained as teacher in Ghana and taught basic school for four years before going to theUniversity. As a basic school teacher I was the first aide provider taking care of sick and injured children, which i really enjoyed doing. when i completed University i taught as a high school teacher and there i was made i house mistress, in charge of over 200 girls in the boarding school. i was in charge of their general well being including first aide and sending them to the hospital if the need arise. From these experiences i got attached emotionally to people and i try to do my best for people especially when they need my help or when they are sick. When i came to the United States in 2012 i trained as a home health aide and i have been giving care it till date. I find joy and satisfaction in the fact that families can trust and rely on me to provide the best of care for their loved ones even when they are not near. i enjoy the bond that is created when the people i care for grow to love and treat me like a family member. Because of the joy i get from my care giving job, i want to train as a Nurse to continue taking care of people who need my help.
