Laverne J.

$16.00/hour · Atlanta, GA
I have been in the medical field as a CNA for 21yrs, and love helping people, seniors, most of all . I think about my mother and father and how much I love them . I know that I personally wouldn't want anyone hurting or disrespecting them, so I put myself in their place. I strongly believe we reap what we sow. That is why I became a caregiver. What I love about being a caregiver is being able to meet new people and help them. A personal achievement I am proud of, is going to school to become a CNA, this time in my life. The first time I became a Electronic Tech made me feel rewarded but not nearly as much as being a caregiver. I am responsible, honest, dependable, punctual and I always stay until the job is finished. I also have experience in private duty, rehab, nursing homes, clinic's and assisted living, hospice, plus home visit's. I am also CPR certified.
