About Takela

Hello, my name is Takela Allen. I am a 30 year old female who lives in Chicago,IL. I have worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant at a Long term Healthcare facility for eight years. Within my eight years as an Certified Nursing Assistant I have worked professionally with people ages 45-106. I have worked with people at all levels of care; from independent to skilled care. I have also had experience with dementia/Alzheimer's. I am very interested in being a caregiver for your family member. I feel that the skills and experience I have gained as a cna makes me a good candidate for this job. I am a very loving, compassionate and patient person. I find joy in helping others in need. That is the reason I became a Certified Nursing Assistant. I have a very cheerful spirit and desire to share my joy with every person I come in contact with.
