Hi, my name is Kenya Turner. I've been working as a CNA since 2006 I started off working in nursing homes and rehabilitation centers I've also worked In hospitals I really enjoy helping people I feel like we all need somebody and I've been call to be that special somebody that some people need

I consider myself dedicated, fun loving, caring patient,compassionate to the needs of individuals, pleasant toward others and those I care for and come in contact with being a caregiver and a parent the needs of others come first. Knowing what the individual needs and to assist that person to advance them in any learning, speaking, mobility, exercising skills with rehabilitation but still allowing the person to continue to be a great part of their community. I have been a caregiver for a great amount of time of my adulthood and parenthood which is a gift/ministry and I receive achievements by Assisting the individual to grow in self accomplishments.

I love being a caregiver because there are a lot of people/senior citizens that need excellent care. I am that person and I love what I do. I will go out the way to make sure that your loved ones are well taken care of. Seeing our seniors growing older and their health decline makes me want to be there for them. I got into this field because I care about the well being of our Seniors.

I have taken care of my grandfather FOR about 3 years prior to his passing. I am a very kind and caring individual. I am very overprotective when it comes to elderly. I don't like it when the much younger generation try to take advantage of them. I am very sympathetic to their pain weather ot emotional and or physical. I was a Certified Nursing Assistant for 5 years. Which alluowed me to experience taking care of the elderly in and out of facilities. The one thing that I enjoy most about taking care and helping them is learning from them and bonding with them. All that they ask is to be treated with respect and for someone to simply listen. When they dp something on their on time am amazed and always praising them for a job well done. I let them know throughout the day of how very proud of them I am. A personal achievement that I am proud of is being able to move to a new state and city and start fresh at a new life.

Trusted Certified Caregiver 20+ years of experience

I have always found myself happiest when in service of others. I served in the USMC 2001-2005, and after an Honorable Discharge, I have worked with several Emergency Medical Providers, to include Hospital and Fire Departments. I am well versed with Emergency procedures, but also the finer, personable and more gentle aspects of health care. I am very outgoing, and can strike up conversation with all ages in a respectful manner. In my 10+ years in an ambulance, I have found that easing ones worries with reassurance, and joyful conversation is the best way to alleviate a lot stress...and stress is a major role player in many patient symptoms. I have a knack for feeling out the personality/background of a person, and adapting my actions and communication to have a more productive relationship. I am married with 4 beautiful children, and my Wife is also in the healthcare field. We go to a small town Church, and live in a somewhat rural area. I also have 7 years as a skilled tradesman, so I am no stranger to fixing/repairing small to large projects, if they were to be encountered. My experience as a Father and Firefighter has given me skills in the kitchen preparing meals of all kinds. I am capable of lifting and moving large people with proper/safe techniques. I can relax with the best of them (reading aloud, watching TV, board games, chatting), but am able to be active for long periods of time without fatigue. My wife and I have both been the "go-to" people in our family for our Elders, as we have played an active role in their care-taking during their final years. My experience in the Emergency setting has given me instinct to interpret peoples signs and symptoms before they turn dire. If anything were to happen while I am a caregiver, I know exactly what to do while awaiting additional help. I have never been reprimanded or fired from any job.

I am a very hard working self motivated Compassionate and easy and eager to luxury

I am outgoing and happy. I try to look on the bright side of life. Being positive is important because we get caught up in negativity. I love helping people and feeling like I'm making a difference. That's why I enjoy what I do.

I have been working in healthcare since 1999. I gave worked in nursing homes hospitals, hospice and private duty. I was a CNA up till the last couple years when I let it expire not working due to the unexpected death of my daughters dad, and being there for her. I love taking care of other people. I have 2 of my own children and 2 step children that I have raised as my own. my 11 year old is autistic and has taught me a lot about patience. What I am most proud of being a caregiver is seeing my patients smile and being able to do for them. it gives me great satisfaction to be able to give back to people.

I am a loving, patient, kind hearted care giver. With my kind heart and nurturing way about me I was made to be a care giver. I love my client ad if they were my family. I treat them with the most respect. I do this for the enjoyment I get in my heart knowing I can help some one in things they need help with and being a friend to brighten their life.
