About Justin

I have been a caregiver for over 3 years. I love working with/helping people. The reason I became a caregiver started 7 years ago when my grandmother moved in with my family. She was sick and I helped take care of her and keep her company while she lived with us and it gave me a warm feeling inside knowing that I was helping her. After she passed away, I wanted to help other people and receive that warm feeling inside that makes me realize that I am making a difference in people's lives. I love making a difference.

    I grew up watching my parents taking care of my grand parents , I guess it comes naturally to me doing the same . Taking care of other gives you that inner satisfaction which is hard to find in other work settings. I'm proud to be a Nurse . I'm registered nurse from a foreign country working as certified nursing assistant with extensive experience working with seniors with different healthcare needs and trained to work with a lot of diverse cultures and settings. http://www.thequint.com/2015/aprhttp://www.thequint.com/2015/apr/07/female-gender-mutilation-indias-well-kept-secret/07/female-gender-mutilation-indias-well-kept-secret
