About Tammy

I have been i health care since 1990. I began homecare as a personal care aid in 2002 and continued through 2005 .I took a CNA class and became a certified nurse aide in December 2005.I worked at numerous nursing homes due to each one closing down not enough funding to stay afloat. My last home care closed up in July of 2010 .I began a CNA career at our local hospital. I love helping people that are in need of help with the daily activites of life. I have been called an "angel from God" by some of my patients I have worked with. I feel good about that because I did something for someone and it feels good. I have been in nursing facilities and to see the sadness from the loneleness they encounter each day of being confined in there. At least if I am in a home working with patients they feel better ,more freedom and to know someone is there for them makes a big difference.

    1. Honestly, I became a caregiver not realizing the extent of care that was needed in the field. I observed my mother providing care for my father before he passed, and it was hard for me to see him passing away. Since I have become a caregiver, I understand the quality of care that is needed in order to help rehabilitate those who are dependent upon someone they can trust. 2. In this field,I have learned a lot about myself as a person. I never expected to become educated on the subject of self. I have learned that you should not take life for granted, disabled does not mean that a person is not human and that they want to be treated special because of their disability, how the small things in life mean so much to a person when they are unable to provide for themselves such as: a warm hello, brushing their hair, putting fresh flowers in a vase on the dresser or kitchen table. 3. A personal achievement that makes me proud is that, over the years, I can greet most family members that I have provided care for, and they smile and welcome me with memories of how I touched their lives as a caregiver for their loved ones, or those that I have provided care for to rehabilitate them during their short recovery. 4. What is calming to the mind as a caregiver is, going home that day knowing that you have made a difference in someone else's life. If you never see them again, you can honestly say that you did your best. I have a great sense of humor, and a great personality. My work spe
