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,

In addition to the regular requirements of of a caregiver, I'm very hard working, I'm cheerful, compassionate and have extremely good creative skills in the arts and I would include cooking as an art. I like to go the extra mile and do little things that sometimes can make all the difference. For instance, putting towels in the dryer so they're nice and warm after a shower, or making sure that meals are served garnished and attractive. It's rewarding to help someone and cheer them up, see them smile ! I enjoy the variety and working with people one on one, and I enjoy working in their homes. I think the overall achievement of working with many people since 2012 is what I'm proud of. I do enjoy making them smile and laugh and taking them out of their troubles at least for a little while, while performing tasks in their home that need to be done. I do not do transfers .This means the person must be totally ambulatory. I cannot help them get up from a chair or get out of bed, nor can I reposition someone in bed. But, I do everything else. Available full time. except Friday afternoon. I can also do weekend, 24/7 shifts or long weeks 24/7.
