I love to help others

My teachers and employers have always commended me for my high level of interpersonal skills and naturally engaging personality. It is hard to catch me without a smile on my face. Friends and family would describe me as kind, patient, always putting others first and extremely empathetic. I grew up very close to my family, especially my grandparents. As they grew older, I would spend my free time visiting with my grandparents and providing care in any way that I could. I thoroughly enjoyed playing games, running errands and providing companionship during the time I had with them. I knew this was something I wanted to continue on and pursue a caregiver role.

Love feeling needed. Also love giving the patient the best, day possible. Love to watch old movies, bring old postcards, or cook be dishes their mother made in the past. Miss my own grandparents terribly. Caregiving fills that void for me. Love, it when my patients relive the past, and feel young again! Proud of taking care of people and helping them regain joy, in their last days.

My grandparents are the reason why I got into being a caregiver/CNA.

I've been a Certified Nurse Assistant for 10 years, I love what I do and enjoy helping others. Nursing has always been my calling. I will be graduating in 2022 with my RN.

Making a difference in the lives of adults and seniors is my calling. For the past eight years, I've been privileged to support their well-being and independence, and offer peace of mind to their families. As a Nursing Assistant, I provide respite care, transportation, hospice services, and home health assistance. I am also adept at personal care, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and managing medications. I'm experienced in dementia care, including de-escalating stressful situations and incorporating memory care activities. I communicate with families through daily reports, text, or phone calls, always respecting their preferred method. Building a connection with your loved one means understanding their preferences and personal history. I hold current CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications. Knowing I can bring comfort and support to your family is what motivates me every day.

I enjoy working with people, and meeting new people! I have experience working in an assisted living home! I like making any environment fun and comfortable!

I've known I wanted to work in healthcare since 8th grade. I've always felt that caring for others in some capacity is my calling. Nothing brings me more joy and pride than helping others. What I most enjoy about being a caregiver is being given the opportunity day after day to be a positive in others' lives.

I love working with people! I have worked in Mexico and Utah with all ages of people but I truly enjoy working with the older generation the most and I believe I am good at making people feel comfortable. I live to encourage people and help them feel important and needed to the end!! All generations need to be together and there is so much we can learn from our elders. I am a Christian but I believe everyone has the right to believe what they choose. I would love to meet you and be of whatever help I can be to you and your family. I have traveled, lived abroad, raised a family, worked as a secretary and as a care giver. I hope our paths cross!
