    I am currently Medtech and am looking to work as a live-out CNA or caregiver. I have been caring for seniors for over 6years and I really enjoy it. I have worked professionally ranging from private family cases to nursing homes,assisted living and agencies.The warmth, the love and the little thank yous' are what motivate me. I am very patient.honest, compassionate, understanding and very reliable. I do drive and own a vehicle to aide to the outdoor needs of my patients; going out to places,grocery shopping,doctors appointments and fun activities. I also have experience as a recreational therapy assistant thus I learn about the person I am to care for and try to bring in interesting activities to make their days brighter.I like pets, but have a reaction to cats. I am a diligent christian, also a non-smoker nor into drugs.

    1. I became a caregiver to help the elderly and those that need help. I don't like to see people suffer in any way, shape, or form. 2. I like that I am able to have a connection with various people. 3. I am proud that I was able to achieve greater communication skills over these years. My first language is English but I was very shy when i was younger. 4. I have a lot of energy and very motivated to get things done properly
