About Destiny

I've been a caregiver for 3 years now, and I love that I chose the medical path. I was interested in caregiving in 2019 because I found out my mom have stage 4 Lung cancer. This allowed me to take care of my mother, who I am still taking care of currently. I love what I do, I love helping and taking care of other people. I would want someone to take care of my mother the way I take care of other people grandmothers, and mother's grandpa's, and dad's! It's a blessing because caregivers/HHA are needed, and I am glad to be apart of this medical field and want to continue my medical education to becoming a RN and hopefully beyond that. I am currently in school at Ross Medical Education Center to get my MA certificate, after that it is back to school for LPN or maybe RN. What helps me to be a great caregiver, is getting up every morning knowing that there is someone in need of my help to get through there day! Some clients/ patients don't have family, and sometimes the caregiver become the family member they needed and I am happy to be that person, I am happy to come everyday and help out as much as I can as if it was my own grandma, or grandpa... or sibling or friend.

Experience & Education

Home Health Aide

Jun 2019 - Present
Bedside Angels
working with Bedside Angels, I worked two homes. First home, was two siblings, the sister was more independent and the brother was bedside only, as a HHA I meal prep, laundry, changed briefs, and also made sure both took meds. Second home, unfortunately the client was hospice, and the little time I was there I just made sure he was comfortable as possible, With the love and care I provided I would have never found this app by the help of the family.
