About Terri

I'm a great caregiver because I take up my time with my patient & take the time in actually getting to know them & I talk to the patients to put myself into their shoes about how theyre feeling & what I can do to make their situation better or more comfortable. The love that I have for older people is what really drew me to care giving & especially after helping a few members of my family through their stages of when they were sick & couldn't do anything for their selves . I enjoy mostly taking care of the patient & seeing a smile on their face to know I either did, said or completed something to have them in a better place instead of their mind on their sickness & incapabilities. I'm proud because even after the trials & tribulations I've encountered I've managed to make someone's day

Caregiving is in my heart, I have been taking care of people for over 27 years and I love it. I have a heart for people. My greatest achivement professionally is the ability to understand people and to help people in need, to understand words that aren't spoken, I currently work for a Hospice company for the last 6 years being a CNA is one of my greatest gifts. Why I became a caregiver my best friend passed away from HIV and I wanted to take care of people like they took care of her. I'm also a CHPNA Certified Hospice Palliative Care Nursing Assistant 2018
