Hello my name is cinthya i've been a CNA for 4 years now, i have done home care, nursing home, hospice, assisted living and i currently work at memory care facility and its the area i have worked the most and feel more comfortable with with dementia patients, I absolutely love what i do and do it with pride nothing makes me happier to leave a client's house knowing they're all taking care of and made their day better, helping people that can't help themselves is what makes my job worth it, i love spending time and get to know about my patients do what they enjoy to do sometimes it can get hard but we have to always remind ourselves our why and take a deep breath always works
