About Kathryn

Hi there! I'm a certified nursing assistant and a current student at UNC Chapel Hill. I have been working as a CNA while I finish my degree. I have really enjoyed my experiences as a CNA and feel that it will make me a better doctor some day. I have 3 years of experience taking care of my grandmother, who is unfortunately blind and immobile. I have personally experienced watching a loved one struggle to do activities that they used to enjoy. I understand the importance of keeping them happy and comfortable in their home. My experiences with my grandma have made me a better caregiver to other seniors. I would love to learn more about your loved one and their needs! *I am also covid-conscious and have been fully vaccinated*

I've had a passion for personal care since I was 15 years old. I lived in Bolivia and volunteered at a convent where the nuns picked up abandoned and homeless elderly and took them to a beautiful nursing home to care for them. There a nurse who knew I loved medicine, took me under her wings and trained me as a CNA. I became a PA in the 1990, but I got a job as a care giver during the time I was home schooling my kids to works night on the side besides my PA work. I love the elderly. I also was blessed to be able to care for my mother who had terminal cancer and finally passed after 3 years. Last year I had the opportunity to work in my field in a Nursing Home and loved every minute of it. I have an Aromatherapy certificate and I am certified to do Aromatherapy essential application in light massage.

I am a great caregiver because I am attentive, loving, cheerful and easy to talk to. I have worked with a Dementia patient for over 5 yrs. A lot of experience in transporting clients. What attracted me to caregiving was the first time I was asked to go shopping for an elderly lady & sat and talked with her for a while. It really blessed me to see what it meant for her to have company & someone to talk to. What I enjoy most about caregiving is putting a little happiness or a bright spot in an elderly person's life.
