Married mother of one, currently in school to become a Medical Assistant. 16 yrs experience in this field as well as care in nursing home setting. Former CNA and have experience with working with patients with Alzheimer's and Dementia. Worked closely with people with intellectual disabilities and mental health issues. I have no issues with personal care as in bathing and toileting. As a caregiver the most rewarding part of the job is knowing I made someone's day, weather it be companionship or making their favorite dish. Oh, and a bonus, I knw my way around a kitchen!
