About Tamihira

I became a caregiver after taking care of my great-grand mother many years ago, after her passing I found out that I really enjoyed this profession and decided to make a career out of it receiving my certification in 1994. What I like most about being a caregiver is the joy of giving back and knowing that someone can rest and enjoying getting older knowing that all their needs will be taking care of. I have many personal goals one being my family but my most recent achievement/goal is getting my A.A degree in Culture Science and Technology this pass May, which brings me a little closer to getting a B.S in Psychology. I'v been apart of the elderly community for 20 years, working in the ares of long term, acute and home care services. I'm a wife and mother of three sons ( a college grad and two teenagers) I enjoy reading and teaching my Sunday school class. Although I'm a professional caregiver (CNA) my long term goal is to study and become a clinical Psychologist.
