I am a nurse that has entered semi retirement. I have a bachelor's degree in nursing and 18 years of clinical nursing experience. I have recently cared for my own grandparents in a hospice environment. I also have experience with vent dependent children.

The Woodrey Family
Assisted them with ADLs in a hospice type setting. The wife was in end stage renal failure. Needed 24 hour care with all activities and medication reminders. The husband was in congestive heart failure with occlusions of the carotid arteries. Mr. Woodrey expired in January 2013 and Mrs. Woodrey in March 2013. They were my maternal grandparents. I quit my job in California to relocate to Illinois to provide their care.

1. Why did you become a caregiver? I love providing home caregiving services to those that would otherwise not be able to do so. The smile on their faces is overwhelming and makes me feel I have done my job right. I have always enjoyed helping people so I know I am doing the right thing. 2. What do you like about being a caregiver? I enjoy the opportunity to impact clients’ lives and make a difference to them. I appreciate the chance to get to know clients and their families and become an integral part of their lives. 3. what is a personal achievement you are proud? A personal achievement that I am proud of is caring for a client who didn't have any family and couldn't care for herself and becoming a big part of her life. 4. Tell us something about yourself? I am a very hard-working young woman I love being a certified nurses assistant. I love to helping people who aren't able to help themselves as if they would like to. I am very honest, passionate and loving.
