I became a caregiver over 19 years ago, I had discovered an ad in the paper about on job training to become a CNA . Being only 18 years old I wasn't to sure if that would I would like it, but after training and doing the work I knew it was what I wanted to do and truly loved my job. I love being a caregiver no matter what the outcome is with my patient, just knowing there receiving the best care and comfort even if just for a short time makes me love this work. I have worked in numerous areas of healthcare, and have learned so much. I have a 13 year old child which I am very proud of he is a delightful child and with the help of my mother he is a real good kid.
