About Ashley

My name is Ashley Hallman and I love working with people and helping people live a healthy life. I was a Massage therapist for 12 years and wanted to take another side job with an elderly friend of the family that I knew. I began working for them 3 years ago, they passed and I wanted to continue in this rewarding field of work so I went to school to become certified as a licensed CNA. I loved school and my Internship at an assisted living facility. I have worked with 2 other families during my schooling as well. I enjoy serving people, I dont mind things that involve physical labor or health issues. Blood and bathroom needs never have been an issue with me. I have ran a goat dairy,delivered animals as well as apprenticed with my midwife as a doula. I love in home care the best bc you get to know the person your assisting and I want them to trust me. I think when working with Dementia patients it is especially important to have familiar faces and routine. I am happy to have small certiifications in certain areas like Massage, Herbalist cert., Doula, CNA is my newest. I feel I am well rounded and am truthfully interested in peoples health and well being. I have had 4 boys of my own and use to Homeschool so I also would work with disabled children as well.I have my CPR and infant CPR as well as first Aid and neg TB test up to date. I have experience in areas that involve hard work. I am determined yet flexible and trainable. I value others and do things as others would prefer
