I am funny, friendly, positive attitude, attentive, fast learner, and efficient. I became a CNA to learn basic skills of nursing (at the time I was studying to become an RN until I changed my major); other than that, I knew nothing about caring for elderly. For me, the attraction is building a solid bond that blossoms into a friendship. I feel building bonds with your client is important, it ensures a strong communication and trust. I found through my years of caregiving I enjoy learning about other people and their life experience, as well as, getting to know their family and friends. A personal achievement I am proud of is when I became a pesco-vegetarian two years ago and love it!
