About Wendy

I am 38 years old and I became a CNA 1 in 2003 and in 2009 I went back and got my CNA 2. I have worked in the healthcare field from 2003-2018. My passion has always been to take care of the elderly and those who need an extra hand. I became a healthcare worker because, in my opinion, our elders were there for us when we needed them to take care of us and to assist with our needs and I feel like we should repay our gratitude by being there for them when the time comes and they need our help. My experience has been in nursing homes, retirement centers, rehabilitation unit, in home care, Alzheimer's, special needs, personal care aid, companionship and 2 years of special needs pediatric care. I am a single mother of three boys, ages 21, 18 and 13. In 2018, I came out of the healthcare field temporarily to help get my boys though school. I am now ready to continue my passion in life and looking forward to getting back into the healthcare field.

Being honest and taking responsibility for my actions. Adaptability and compatibility; I get along with others. Drive and determination; I will strive help you keep going no matter what. Compassion and empathy; I can relate to others well. Patience; I will take all the time in the world if that is what's needed. Courage; I will do what's right in tough situations. Loyalty; I'll do what it takes to earn your trust. I'm attracted to being a caregiver because I enjoy getting close with families and building a relationship with them to make their situation a little easier. If I can be there for someone I want to be there. Making memories are worth a lifetime. One piece of my life that I've always been proud of is back in elementary school when I helped this one student who had spina bifida, use a walker, and wheel chair most of the time. I was their to open doors, move chairs, get things when needed, or help them out when they were tired. Over time it was recognized then was nominated for the Service Above Self Awards.

Hi, my name is Mckenzie and I am 20 years old. I am a mother, a friend and of course, a caregiver. Helping others is my passion. I am patient and kind. Teaching and learning is a process you start with everyone you meet. It takes time but with dedication and patience, all is possible. I'm from Winston Salem. When I'm not working, I am spending time with my cat, or enjoying painting and arts and crafts.
