I'm good at what I do because i'm an advocate for my patients,I pay attention to detail and I care about my patients well being.I like to engage them into conversations,exercise e.g walks if they are able to.I try to make their life as they know it as possible.I started working as a caregiver after working in summer camp for special needs,I realized then that I loved caring for people therefore I decided to be a C.N.A so I can better service my patient with knowledge.I have been privailed to work with patients for so many years and have outstanding references.I went back to school partly because I wanted to get more knowledge to better service my patients,finished my pre nursing classes part time while I continued to work but I had to put it on hold because I got married to my wonder husband and we were blessed with a beautiful daughter the greatest achievement of my life.This is a calling for me,I will always help people in what ever capacity i'm Needed. I'm committed to my patients and I join the family to make sure the care runs smoothly to relieve the pressures of caring for a loved one.

Although I have always had a natural ability to help others, I became interested in caregiving and the healthcare field after taking care of my uncle who had cancer. I understood the importance in providing quality care for those in need. As a certified CNA, being passionate in what I do, responsible, empathetic, and self-less are the qualities I am proud to carry. An accomplishment I am proud of is going back to school to pursue nursing and maintaining a high GPA.

I believe what makes me a great caregiver is putting the patient number one at all times. I believe the caregiver must show patience’s, good quality of work, be dependable, and have great communication about the patient's care among the family. The reason I became a caregiver is because I acknowledge the care a person needs to be given when they are not able to take care of themselves with passion and compassion. One motivation that inspires me to be a caregiver is give the patient the ability to smile again with the nurturing care you can provide and anticipate their needs. A personal achievement I’m proud with being a caregiver over these past 8 years making the patient feel happy in a daily basis with the great care you provided and going home with a good feeling.
