About Bashita

I became a caregiver because I love working with people. At Sixteen I spent my entire summer in the hospital taking care of my father who died from cancer. I also helped out with my grandmother, who has dementia, while I was living in Louisiana. I enjoy being a caregiver because I love helping those who can no longer help themselves and providing the companionship they need. I graduated from Jackson State University in 2006 with a B.A. in Political Science. I also graduated from Kaplan University in 2009 with Certification in Paralegal. I am a kind and giving person. I am very patient. I've been caring for others for years, but a professional caregiver for a year.

    I was raised by my grandmother. I lived with her until her health declined and she passed away. I loved her dearly. I think that's where my journey to becoming a CNA started. I have always loved our older generation. Nothing brings me more joy than loving them, taking care of them, and simply having a warm conversation. They are the reason why we are here. They nurtured and provided for us when we needed them. It's only right that we do the same for them. I'm very compassionate about what I do. I don't take it lightly. I always go beyond what is expected of me and it's all out of compassion.

    Old people are my favorites. I somehow connect with them more easily than anyone else. (Not kidding...weird right?) I have professional and years of non professional experience as a geriatric caregiver. I helped both of my grandmothers through the end of their lives. My dad's mom passed at 96 in 2011 and my moms mom passed last Christmas 2017. My professional experience working as a CNA at a nursing home for 6 months was important and amazing but too much work for anyone I know, really. I learned so much and made the deepest of connections with people that no one else seemed to talk to or listen to. I got my CNA certification in high school from a 2 year vocational class so I'm likely more knowledgeable than the average Nurse Aide as this class lasted 2 hours per day for 2 years. (They want me to pay $40 to do the background check)
