About Kristen

Hello! My name is Kristen and I graduated from Ball State University last May, where I studied to be a nurse! Before I graduated, I worked at an assisted living as a caregiver in a memory care unit for almost a year. Then I was a patient care tech on an adult medical surgical unit. I'm currently a pediatric nurse, but miss taking care of my geriatric patients! I work night shift as a nurse full time, so my schedule varies week to week, but I have my schedule out in advance to coordinate!

I am looking for a part time position with hours in the evenings and/or weekends. I became a Caregiver because I enjoy being around people. My grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and after my grandfather passed away, I would visit her frequently to do her hair and other small tasks for her. The more time I spent there, I discovered how much I loved it. I got my Caregivers certificate within months and have never loved what I do so much. I love being able to help others. I love encouraging them to embrace what they can do and help them, gently, with what they are unable to do, now. Even though the job may be difficult at times, the reward at the end of the day is always worth it. I have worked in some very challenging circumstances where my patience, joy and understanding are challenged. I am proud to say that I have learned to understand where my client is coming from in different circumstances. I have learned to be patient with them during any situation and to be joyful before, during and after any trying time. I am a people person, with a big heart, who cares immensely for other people. I am trustworthy, kind, patient, caring and understanding.
