About Pamela

I decided to work get my CNA certification after visiting my Grandma in a nursing home, I knew I wanted to help other elderly men and women with their Activities of daily living I wanted to show them I cared. I enjoy listening to their life stories and all the changes they have seen and lived through.I like to share these stories with other people and children as things come up in a conversation. I have learned many new things from working with Seniors and I have used many of their ideas in my life from cooking to raising children and house cleaning ideas. I am currently enrolled in a community college I plan on studying Phlebotomy, I have always taken courses over the years in continuing education and prerequisites to AAS.

    I became a cna because of my desire to help people in need. I worked in various places to gain experience of all ages and conditions. As I became older, I realized I wasn't meeting my full potential of exceptional care giving in a facility. So I turned to private care in clients homes, to focus my time, completely on one individual.
