About Candida

I have been a caregiver as long as I can remember. It's just natural for me to want to shelter or take care of people, and animals too, and make them feel comfortable and safe and loved. I started babysitting and petsitting at the age of 9 proving I was mature enough to do the job and that I am honest and trustworthy. Those qualities, as well as compassion, respect, and integrity, are important to me and I hope and try to reflect that in everything I do.

I am not certified and it has been quite a few years since I did my training. It was in high school and I took Health Occupations taught by Kathy Gunson RN. I did complete 100 hours of clinicals at McKenzie Willamette Hospital doing two week rotations through various departments such as Rehab, Short stay and Emergency room. I graduated that year and put off taking the final exam at LCC that would've licensed me as a Certified Nursing Assistant.

I always give 100% and do the best job I can,with no exceptions or excuses.if I can add a smile or laugh to a clients day,that means a lot to me. I enjoy the opportunity to impact clients lives and make a difference to them.i appreciate the chance to get to know clients and their families and become an integral part of their lives.seeing a smile of appreciation over just a small dead that I do makes me love my job. I like meeting new people and providing caregiving services that they can no longer do for themselves.

Hi I'm Nikiea and I provide quality care for people of all walks of life. I became a caregiver looking for experience to enter into the hospital field. Once I got here is just absolutely loved taking care of people it just comes natural to me. I have been in this film for just about 6 years now and I was awarded DSP of the year 2017 for the state of Oregon. Helping people in their daily lives and getting them out and about to explore the community really moves me. I love helping people become their best selves.
