About Jonathan

My name is Jonathan and I am a recent college graduate with hopes of one day becoming a primary care physician. I have always had a passion for helping others and see the greatest personal fulfillment in life as providing compassionate, dedicated care for those in need. I thrive on interpersonal communication and sharing quality time with friends and family. As the youngest sibling of five, I have always been given love and fostering care by my family members; this has inspired my personal ambitions as well as instilled a deep sense of duty/empathy for all individuals in need that I come into contact with. My greatest achievement to date would have to be graduating from college with a major in Biological Sciences in May 2018, after dealing with financial and personal setbacks, forcing me to forego my studies for an entire year. To complete my degree, I had to work multiple jobs during my leave to save enough money to pay my tuition alone while successfully completing an overloaded academic course schedule to make up for time lost. Additionally, upon my graduation I devoted the following summer to preparing to take the Medical College Admission Test in order to continue chasing my dreams of practicing medicine. I invested more hours and dedication in this than I had ever devoted to anything in my life. My effort was rewarded by successfully scoring above the 80th percentile in the nation. These achievements have afforded me some options for furthering my education and eventually taking the next steps of becoming a doctor. They are of the greatest value to me because I look back and recall the multiple setbacks and adversity I faced, proving to myself that my optimism and humble work ethic can help me accomplish anything. Faith in one's own potential and expressing a positive, genuine attitude towards life/others are the key values I maintain when I approach any situation in life.

HI, my name is Nicole ( Nicky) & I specialize in private home care as well as hospital after care and have been a care specialist for 10 years+ Becoming a caregiver was an unexpected twist in my life. At the age of 41 my best friend was diagnosed with Colon Cancer & my journey began. You are immediately part of a team; patient, family, doctors & yes the disease. Hospice, was what I learned and experienced next. This is where the most important work comes in, nurturing., when just being with another person is all you can do. After the loss of my best friend, there was no way I could go back to pushing paperwork in an office. My first clients were so much fun, two sisters in their late 90's both with Dementia. They loved walking to the park, they even liked the work out equipment at the park. They could actually wear me out there & of course when we would get home, they'd immediately forget that we'd already gone and want to go back, I knew physically they couldnt, and that's the only thing that saved me, it was funny. Finding humor in any situation, keeping the atmosphere light with a charge of calm energy, listening and picking up on non verbal cues, also extremely important. I moved to Fremont CA to help assist with my own grandmother's care. My family all pitched in which gave me the time & opportunity to start working with Carelelinx & three fabulous families over the next three years including the beginning of Covid. I've been working in Nevada for 2 years now. Very exited to become a part of your team. I bring calm energy, experience and ability. Experience: House Management (light light, housekeeping) Dementia, Aphasia, Parkinsons, mobile, not mobile. Autoimmune & pain management. All Post operation: including, plastic surgery recovery, replacement surgeries, Mastectomy, BBL, Mommy Makeovers, Masculinizing Chest Surgery etc. I've done it all, POSITIVELY! Again Im Nicole & Im dedicated to making every day, the best we can make it.
