About Michelle

I did not intend to become a CNA, I did it to help me to get into LVN school, but I had the opportunity to practice at 2 long term care facilities and found I really enjoyed working with the older population, and I gave me a tremendous amount of datisfaction, so much so in fact that I wish to continue with long term care as an LVN after I pass my board exam. What I like best is the ability to make a difference everyday, and the relationships that I build with the residents I care for are tremendously valuable to me. One of my proudest achievements is the facility I was working for asking me to take a position as an assistant director of staff development because of my commitment to being a patient advocate. Nursing is in my blood and it is what I was born to do, I can't wait to get back out there and be back in the patient care setting doing direct patient care and trying to make a difference on resident at a time.

    My name is Christina Lopez. I have been a caregiver for 10 plus years. I am very compassionate and love to help the elderly continue to be independent as much as they can in their own home. I have always loved helping others and enjoy spending my time with elderly. They always have such great stories from their life experiences. I was with my last patients for 7 years. In that time I grew to love them very much as if they were my own grandparents.
