About Saleena

When I was younger I would always go with my To work and see how hard she worked to help talkie care this elderly woman. When I turned 15 my mom got really sick and doctors told her that she had kidney failure. I had to help my mom out a a lot and I knew that's I knew what my passion was . To assist and help people with everyday living futures that are able to care for themselves. That is my passion. I love the fact that I can help others with the many different skills and I have gotten over the years. I have a wide range of nursing skills . I am caring , respectful and compassionate,

I am a compassionate woman. I believe maintaining dignity and respect for all people. Especially, to those who cannot be as independent as they want to be. From personal experience, life can be forever changed in a second. I encourage independence when applicable and respectfully take charge of personal care. Every person is unique and their situation is equally unique. I avoid combative situations using distraction instead of response. I strongly protect every person's right to dignity, respect, love, compassion and PRIVACY! I am CPR certified. I am also a Chef who can cook, bake and decorate a cake for special occasions. Loneliness and isolation I respond with kindness and humor. As of 4/18/2021 Covid vaccine completed. Covid compliant.
