I started caring for people even before I completed my CNA certification. I've always had a passion to help people in need and to be a companion to people that don't have anyone else. I am very passionate about what I do because I love what I do. I am very proud of the education that I continue to pursue. My ultimate goal is to become a nurse. The thing I enjoy the most about this job is the different people I get to care for. I've learned a lot from my clients ,and I know that they could be completely comfortable with me.

My story started when my grandparents got sick. My grandparents raised me. When they got sick I took care of both of them for 2 years each. I love being around elderly people and enjoy their company. I believe in my career that is important to build a relationship with clients and their families . My clients become like my family. What makes my current clients family happy is that they know when I'm with their family they are good hands. The advice I was given by a current clients family was that I am very observant . What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is being able to wake up in the morning and going to see my clients and talk with them also having a great feeling I helped them achieve their goals. I have strong feelings as long as my client can still do some things independently it is important to stand by them , let them still have their independence . I have a lot of patience and compassion with my clients and that's why my current clients families like me.
