My level of expertise is like no other; Effortlessly, I always go above and beyond for my clients. Ever since the age of five years old when my Mom asked me what I wanted to become and my answer was "Mom, I want to be a Doctor because I want to take care of old people and I love them" and of course she laughed. Years later I ended up in numerous occupations, but at the end I found my way back to nursing (smile)- Need I say more? It gives me great pleasure to listen to the elderly. Moreover, their stories are precious and rare each unique experience that "cannot" be replaced (priceless commodity) and most importantly the joy and knowledge it gives me deep within (humbled). Looking back on all my choices I can honestly say that I have no regrets; Especially, since it has mold my life and made me who I am today. My mother would have been proud of me when I achieved my licensed (CNA) and knowing that it does not stop there since I was already enrolled in a nursing program in College and eventually I will go back since I took a long break after she passed. In conclusion, I love what I do and work for me is (never) work since my passion is caring for the elderly (smile)-

Hello, My name is chassity, I am 23 years old and I have been a caregiver for about 5 years now. Caregiving to me is rewarding, I love to help others, care for others as well. A personal achievement that I am proud of is being able to leave an impact on those who I have taken care of.

A personal achievement that I'm genuinely proud of would be adapting to the elders who are paraplegic, and physically can not do for themselves. Reason being would be because they mentally beat their selfs up for not being able to physically do anything with out someone else's assistance, or my own. Being able to get them out of that dark place and let them know they are safe, and it is my pleasure to be of service to them and actually getting them to believe I love what I do and they are not the slightest bother is the best part! What I enjoy most is spending time with them. Getting to know them on a personal level. Understanding what their life was like before they got to who they are today. Letting them feel like they have a genuine friend and someone there who actually wants / cares to listen to what they have to say ! The experience that I have being a caregiver that makes me everyone's absolute favorite would be the way I cook , clean , and adapt to a new setting with in seconds. I'm a fast learner and a people's person. There fore in a new environment with a new client , it will come as natural as taking In a breath of fresh air. Last but not least the things that attracted me to be a care giver would be , being put in a position where I'm generally/genuinely NEEDED ! In causal / usual work spaces everyone works as a team to get something done. In this specific situation, it's direct contact. The client relies on being well took care of by the caregiver. Which means they look forward to seeing you everyday and grateful for the assistance that's given weather it's appreciated or not, I know my personal care with them is essential to their every day life, and that makes me feel good about my self!

I enjoy working one on one with individuals providing the best care that will make them be the best that they can be throughout the day. I encourage life amidst the struggles in the individual that I care for. I'm a graduate of the University of Connecticut and double majored in Sociology and Urban and Community Studies.
