My name is Janie Lopez I been a CNA for 36 yr i have experience in Alzheimer's facilities skill nursing home I work hospice I have experience in hospitals I have been self employed for the past 7years most of my clients are Alzheimer's patients and Dementia patients some are hospice patients I really enjoy my job in helping people

1. I grew up going to work in home health care with my mother and helped out a lot i came to love it. Caring for others is my life. Be it my children, family, friends or a personal caregiver, it's in my blood. 2. The people, being needed, appreciated and being helpful to someone who needs it. 3. I was a live in caregiver for a man with brain damage and a brainstem injury. He was totally dependant and had the mindset of a 5 year old. I worked hard with him every day, some days he didn't like me much, but by the end he was walking on his own, cooking his own meals, grocery shopping, using the restroom no longer needed adult diapers taking his medicine bathing and dressing himself and went from being child like to a proud reasonable adult and he no longer needed assistance. He had his life back. I'm very proud of bill Britton! 4. I'm a mother of a 13 year old girl and a 10 year old boy. I'm dependable, even when i don't want to be, i can't disappoint anyone, intentionally, or i feel horrible. I don't have any friends or family living close to me so i spend all my time at home being a mom. Never get out like people tell me to cause i always feel like i have too many responsibilitys I would rather tend to. I'm a pretty boring person I've been told. Note; My license and cpr certification has expired and I have not yet updated them. I definitely plan to in the near future.
