I am a State tested nursing assistant I have experience and dementia Parkinson's long-term step down rehab bed bound wheelchair-bound and nonverbal individuals I first became an STNA for a personal reason a family member became sick so I took the class is necessary to bring him home and take care of him myself from there my love of taking care of others became very strong so I continue I enjoy my job because I love making someone feel special I love giving families the feeling of someone is caring for their loved one someone is being there when they can't that's the feeling I wanted for my family member

I have been a Caregiver on many levels for a great 12 years stretch I have worked in nursing homes as well as agencies and as a provider for independent care giving I am dependable ,trustworthy, have great bedside manor and i have compassion for my client and their family I have great deal patience this is a no rush relationship with my clients and most of all i am aware attentive to my clients needs their condition and care and I am a great listener and a communicator . what brought me into this business and relationship of care giving is when my relative got really ill and had no one to properly care for them it makes a huge difference I learned when you or someone you know they recover or just do so much better when they have superb care giving skills on every level that can be to help enhance their life or just being able to cope with their disabilities on a daily bases ..What I enjoy the most about care giving it is a tough job no doubt but I love challenges that says you can not conquer that because I have it in my mind with hard work ,zeal and strategy I believe I can my client can do whatever it takes to make progress .I love seeing my clients conquer difficult situations with their disabilities they face daiy I believe in my client because I love to see them believe in themselves I enjoy being a service of light helping my clients enhance their quality of life no matter the disabilities that try and hold them back from living their best life possible.I have 4 adult children one was diagnosed with Autism at a very young age it was a great challenge for me l was sadden but not defeated and I was not going to let him be defeated neither so I got myself very active in all I could about it connected my son and myself to all we could to not only learn this thing but beat it and we did he is 23 now college student and living his best life yet coping with his disability he was born with but not defeated by that was my best and greatest achievement ever.
