I am compassionate and empathetic to individuals and their needs. I have 8 years experience working with seniors. I was a live in caregiver in 2004 for a year ; that experince inspired me to want to become a CNA. I later became a CNA and has worked with nursing staffing agencies in the Chicago area, where I given assignments at various hospitals in Chicago to perform as a CNA, sitter, caregiver. I currently work at a senior primary physicians office, where I edcate seniors on medicare benefits and other healthcare issues. I enjoy working with this particular group , it not only puts me in a position to provide quality care, it gives me the ability to make someone life better.
