About kathryn

I grew up taking care of my mother whom suffered from multiple sclerosis and stopped walking when I was three. Taking care of someone that you become so close to gives you a lot of compassion and a full understanding on how much you impact their life by providing them with the best care possible. This is why I am striving to be a nurse along with why I love to care for others!

My name is Tameika and I have cared for seniors as a Caregiver for many years. I completed my CNA training and worked in both Nursing Home and Private Duty settings where I was able to put that training to good use by assisting with Range of Motion exercises, transport patients in wheelchairs, supported ambulation efforts and provided safe transfers. I am also Certified/Trained to work with Individuals with Developmental Disabilities. I have worked in settings where I assisted with daily living skills required for independence. I've interacted with individuals with limited verbal communication skills and understanding using a variety of supports and positive techniques. I am compassionate, trustworthy, dependable and love working with people. I look forward to being able to utilize my skills and experience, expand my knowledge, and offer opportunities for personal and professional growth.
