About Trina

I am very passionate about what I do. I have always liked helping and has always helped the seniors, even when I was very young. So with the help of my mom found a training class for CNAs' and took it. I have been a CNA for 21 years. I am very compassionate when it comes to my work, I make sure that whomever I'm helping has a say so in their care and what they want. It is top priority to me to make sure they are pleased with the care I provide. Just seeing my clients or whomever I'm working with smile brings joy to my heart, and let's me know I have done something right and I have helped this person.

    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.
