About Kristine

My name is Kristine, I became a CNA2 in 2008 but have been a CNA since 2001. I have worked in a local hospital, Hospice and the Home Health areas, I have enjoyed helping others in participating in their recovery or at the end of life. I have always been drawn to helping others which is why I have been in this field for many years. I have learned a lot from the nurses and doctors that I have worked with and am looking forward to furthering my career in nursing this spring. My goal is to become an LPN and to eventually open my own AFH here in town.

    Hi I'm Nikiea and I provide quality care for people of all walks of life. I became a caregiver looking for experience to enter into the hospital field. Once I got here is just absolutely loved taking care of people it just comes natural to me. I have been in this film for just about 6 years now and I was awarded DSP of the year 2017 for the state of Oregon. Helping people in their daily lives and getting them out and about to explore the community really moves me. I love helping people become their best selves.

    I always give 100% and do the best job I can,with no exceptions or excuses.if I can add a smile or laugh to a clients day,that means a lot to me. I enjoy the opportunity to impact clients lives and make a difference to them.i appreciate the chance to get to know clients and their families and become an integral part of their lives.seeing a smile of appreciation over just a small dead that I do makes me love my job. I like meeting new people and providing caregiving services that they can no longer do for themselves.
