About Quatisha

I am a great caregiver because I provide excellent care to elderly/disabled people who can't do for themselves. I became a caregiver because I love helping people, and it feels good to help someone that's not able to help themselves. I feel that helping someone else makes my day better because I know I made a difference in someone's life whether it's helping a patient bath, eat, get dressed or even assist with walking. A personal achievement that I'm proud of is me being able to work with hospice patients. I was scared to work with hospice patients when I first started as a certified nurses aide, but I work with them everyday now and I love it!!! I'm going tell you a little about me I'm a dedicated hard worker, caring, respectful, loyal and honest person. I'm also a great person to get along with and I can work and a lot of different settings such as nursing homes, home care etc.

My name is Tameika and I have cared for seniors as a Caregiver for many years. I completed my CNA training and worked in both Nursing Home and Private Duty settings where I was able to put that training to good use by assisting with Range of Motion exercises, transport patients in wheelchairs, supported ambulation efforts and provided safe transfers. I am also Certified/Trained to work with Individuals with Developmental Disabilities. I have worked in settings where I assisted with daily living skills required for independence. I've interacted with individuals with limited verbal communication skills and understanding using a variety of supports and positive techniques. I am compassionate, trustworthy, dependable and love working with people. I look forward to being able to utilize my skills and experience, expand my knowledge, and offer opportunities for personal and professional growth.
