About Shakia

I'm very friendly and compassionate about my job and the residents I care for.I developed a passion for care giving when I was 15 and my grandfather was diagnosed with terminal stomach cancer.I realized how drastically you can change a persons life just by being there for them and showing them you care.My grandfather was on hospice majority of the time he had cancer and I was the person who helped take care of him after hospice caregiving hours.Bonding with him and knowing how much he appreciated me and the things I did for him made me realize I'd love to be a blessing to other people in the same way and from that day forward I knew I always wanted to work in the field of health care.I am very proud of the loving and patient person I have became in my journey of caring for others and I'd love to further my experience and be of great assistance to someone else's life.

I ABSOLUTELY love helping/caring for others, it makes me FEEL good,like I'm GIVING them freedom of living at home, a chance of living out the best where they have tons of memories, without having to be put into a care place! Having over 11+ yrs of experience of being a professional Personal Care Aide, in home & live in facilities , as well, I've worked with dementia patients as well as others who just needed a caring hand, and I'm a VERY compassionate person who is responsible and reliable. I CAN be on call if NEEDED! I've always enjoyed & respected my ELDERS, it's just part of being myself, an Empath,plus they have so much wisdom to share with someone who TRULY CARES & I FEEL like this is my TRUE calling!

I am a people person and a nurturer by heart. This is what called me into the nursing profession. I am a mother of 3 and also a cancer survivor. These 2 things alone have molded me into a more patient, kind, and grateful individual. I have worked in healthcare for 21 years and I come packed with experience.
