About Vernictia

1) I became a caregiver initially to care for my grandmother who had a stroke and I discovered I was very good at it. 2) I like being a caregiver because I enjoy making a difference in the lives of those that I come in contact with. 3) The one thing I am most proud of is deciding to go back to school to get my degree. 4) I am a person who sincerely believes that everything happens for a reason and if there's a day that goes by and you don't learn something new, then it was a day wasted.

I became a caregiver to provide services for those that can't provide for themselves. I love being a caregiver, because I love helping and caring for others. My personal achievement is giving back. I'm a mother of 10 children, I been a homemaker all my life, married for 17 years, now divorced. I love reading, cooking, and caring for others. I'm an adult homecare provider at the present time.

I think because I always had the need to care for people who could not help themselves. What makes me a perfect care giver is just being their for someone who needs me they are people who have needs. I'm also attending Dorsey as a Medical assistant. I'm determined to be involved in any way i can to insure that the client is safe in my care. I'm here to help. I am currently in an assistant living situation I'm caring for the dogs as well. So my care continues. I once had a client she loved me so much she was very upset another resident had to care for her. I had no idea she liked my personality that much.
