About Cortney

Im am very compassionate and have huge sense of humor. But I do listen when people need to talk. I have taken care of the elderly for the last 5 years during in the nursing home or home care. I was a housekeeper and heard the people talking to the residents and didn't really like how they were treating then so I decided to be come a CNA! I love being the person to make someone day it makes me very happy. Some people say being a CNA isn't a very good job but you get to make the elderly happy and be their family and I love that about being a CNA

Hello! My name is Jenna Taber I am 29 years old. I have a 6 year old son named Michael and he lives with me. I have been in the caregiving field for well over 12 years, but I became certified through All Metro Healthcare in Corning around 4 years ago. I have worked in nursing homes and clients homes as well. I have experience with dementia clients, TBI clients, Alzheimer's clients, bed ridden clients,and clients who use a hoyer or a lumex to transfer. I enjoy making a difference in someone's life even if it's just helping them with their daily needs. I wanted to be in the healthcare field due to seeing how much neglect my grandfather was put through. I also wanted to make a difference in someone's life as well. My goal is to become an RN or an LPN in the near future.
