I have always since a little girl wanted to be a nurse. I started in elementary helping the I.U 13 classes with recess, bus, and gym buddies. In 1997 I took a 2 week course and got my CNA. In the past 22 years I have met a lot of different people in the nursing field. Some that can communicate verbally others can't. Some can show emotions others can't. I've worked for people my age, older and younger. I give the same care and respect to each one. Maybe showed a little more love to some that had no one else in there life. I love being a personal care assistant, I enjoy meeting new people and helping them progress in life. Even if its just getting ready for the day. I enjoy to see them smile.
