About Diane

well i'm a certified nursing assistant and mother of 12 i've been in this position for about 10 years and caring for the elderly and disabled is a job i love to do. working in customer service prior to this helped me to understand what my priorities are in working with the elderly and disabled. working is this environment helps me to understand that at some point in everyone's life they will need help and family members are sometimes not able to give that full time help so that's where we come in as caregivers. i learn so much from the individuals that i care for their lives are so interesting and informative which why i do what i do and my compassion and understanding of their needs and wants is very important to me. i've worked in facilities, hospitals and residential homes and nothing was more rewarding to me then working in the persons' homes because of the individualized attention your able to give to the resident. hopefully i'll be able to do this work until i can't work anymore.

I decided to become a caregiver about 12 years ago while caring for my 86 year old father. He had several medical issuses some include... COPD, seizures, stoke dementia etc. After his passing i realize how important it was to able to care for those who are unable to care for themselves. I also realize we may all be face with the need of someone to assist us with ADLs, errands and so forth one day. It brings me joy knowing I've helped someone continue to enjoy a quality life despite their limitation. I currently hold a CNA certification I'm a easy-going, compassionate, funloving a little quite at times self motivated and a serious minded female. My passion is to help others make the most out of their life.
