The Reason why I became a certified Nurse Assistance is because I have a passion for helping others. To me this is not just a job this is my career and I want to advance in it. When I was younger I watch my older Brother grow up having sizures and many other health issues. I always wanted to take care him and make sure he was always good in my hands. Later on when i became a CNA I got the opportunity to do so. I'll always cherish the days that I took care of him. I enjoy taking care of people and help those in need. One of my many achievements is Graduating high school and completing Nursing School and become a Certified Nurse Assistance. I enjoy what I do. I'm very down to earth. I take my job seriously. I'm caring, loving, funny, outgoing, polite, patient, and respectful. I have a lot of years of experience to offer.
