About Malaika

I am a motivated CNA/PTC and Home Health Aide. I have been in the medical field for 12 years. My goal is to become a RN. I started by taking care of my grandmother who later pass on from cancer. I was there with her to provide emotional support and to take very good care of her. I realize that I want to help people who sometimes can't take care of themselves. To be a loving companion and part of a great support system when they family can not be there. I am an effective and reliable team player. I love taking care of people, to be able to bring a smile to their face at a time where they think their losing the responsibility of being able to take care of themselves. I'm glad to say that I am graduating with honors from New Age training as a Patient Tech Specialist and will be starting Nursing school this Spring. I love what I do. I love to help people in need especially when I'm helping them feel better about their situation.

I became a caregiver because I care about the well-being of the elderly. The smile on their faces is overwhelming and makes me feel good inside. I am dependable, responsible, and honored to take care of the patients I meet and have a positive impact on their lives. I have up-to-date CNA and BLS certifications. I also have 6 years' experience working with the elderly, assisting them with eating, bathing, dressing, toileting etc. I get a sense of satisfaction from helping patients feel comfortable and loved.

I have an innate sense of selflessness and empathy is embedded in my personality and I am good listener.I am a compassionate, honesty, reliable person that care about people. I have been working in the personal care profession for several years. I decided to become a caregiver because I enjoy providing care to people of different ages. It gives me great satisfaction to know that I am helping someone and this job enables me to make a difference in the daily lives of my clients. My client misplaced her money I helped her to find it and put it in a secure place, she was concern that she would forget where she put her money. She speaks five languages, so I told her choose one of the language and write it down on a piece of paper and put on the refrigerator. She was very grateful that I helped her to solve her problem and I am very proud that I was able to help her.
