About Megan

Hello, I am a third year candidate for a BS in Behavioral Neuroscience at Northeastern University in Boston. I have an up-to-date Massachusetts CNA certification and I am looking for a part time position in Boston starting July 6th 2015. I have previous CNA experience at River Terrace Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center, where I worked in a wide range of patient care settings, including long-term care, rehabilitation, and a locked dementia unit. I find patient care to be a personally rewarding pursuit, and I feel my strengths make me well-suited to the challenges. I am hard-working, compassionate, and dedicated to excellence. Thanks for your time and consideration, Megan Barnes

    My first job, at age 10, was summer companion to my maternal grandmother. Working for the family matriarch required abundant labor (my grandmother was elderly), but the daily chores gave rise to an unexpected pleasure; I liked being responsible. For 12 lovely summers, I cleared the acorns from her croquet court, hiked to the store to buy her groceries, and delivered her (she did not drive) by rowboat to tea at the homes of neighbors. Within the formality of her cottage, I learned to be a responsible member of a household. And whether I felt like it or not, I learned to be good company. Still under my grandmother's spell, I have worked as a lady's companion and as a gentleman's secretary for more than 20 years. Although I am no longer gathering acorns, I accompany my employers on their travels, keep them company at cultural events, edit their memoirs, and teach them them how to draw and paint. I have found these employments to be congenial and remunerative. They give me great pleasure.
