About Donnetta

Hi, my name is Donnetta. I have been a caregiver for 4 years now. I currently work in a Senior living facility, and take care of my grandmother that has Dementia and a Psychotic disorder. I became a caregiver because I love being able to help others, and it really hits home with me. I also really enjoy seeing them happy, listening to them reminiscence, getting to be a part of their world as it is now. Being a part of their world, the way they currently see things, that's something that you have to embrace. I am TB negative, my background is clean and I am drug free. I am not CNA certified, but, I have been trained just like a CNA. I have applied for a background check, its just not in yet. Good luck with your search for great care!

Some of my personal traits and being a caregiver is my love for the job. I have always love to help people regardless of the situation and there is a shortage on good people and honest people. What attracted me to being a caregiver was my great grandmother and my mom. When my great grandmother got very ill we took care of her until her last days that meant feeding bathing changing colostomy bag changing catheter And just being a companion. I also help my mom take care of a autistic girl for five years. The thing I love most about being a caregiver is the people you meet along the way and a wonderful stories you hear. When I look at my mother I know one day she may or may not be in a situation to need me so I want plenty of practice along the way. One of my biggest achievement was graduating from the phlebotomy school last year. My other biggest achievement is continuing to take care of my special needs son and my other job while balancing out life and everything around me
