About Jenna

Hi! Nice to meet you my name is Jenna Olszewski. I completed my CNA certificate and Moraine Valley in early August and now i am in search of the perfect job! I have always been a very caring, outgoing, patient and empathetic person and i think that's what drew me to being a caregiver. That and both my mother and sister are nurses. I spent most of my time at the end/after high school being a care aide for my grandfather, who broke his leg in 2015, until he unfortunately passed away in 2016. After that i went immediately into being the primary caregiver of my father who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2017 until he passed away March of this year. I understand what it means to put your parent in the care of others and how new and frightening it might be but i promise to take care off them like they were my own family member. Thank you for reading and i hope to hear from you! -jenna
