About Carrie

I became a caregiver due to my genuine concern for others. I was a private caregiver for a family friend and knew that this was what I am destined to do with my life; therefore, I enrolled in nursing school and graduated with a BSN. I love being a caregiver, because it gives me the opportunity to help others. A personal achievement I am very proud of is successfully completing nursing school. I am a very caring selfless person whom mainly has experience with serving and the food industry. Although I have served tables for so long I have mastered approaching others with a friendly attitude and making my paycheck based on my personality. I love helping others and meeting new people.

    I bathed, clothed, feed, and transported my client. I not only helped her with her activities of daily living, but I was also a great companion.

    Everyone I come in contact with loves to talk with me! I'm a very energetic person with lots of smiles. I provide care to others when they can't help themselves. I love what I do and have a passion for what I do. I like to make a difference in other people's life. Myself I believe the love and care you give to other person represents who you are as a person. I'm very dependable and I have no problem with working a lot of hours when needed, I'm always available. As many years as I have been a nursing assistant I have never had someone say anything negative about me. My bosses have always had great things to say about me as a person and an employee as well as my co workers too. I own my own vehicle with insurance and can do anything I am asked. I have experience in hospital,nursing Home, assisted living, and home care settings. I have experience Cath removal and insert as well as oxygen tanks tubing and all equipment. I have cared for patient with diabetes and checking sugar and reminding and administrating medication to patients. I have great references and work history if needed. I'm also FIRST AID/CPR certified and I have just finished Medical Assisting classes, will be taking the state test this year as well.
