About Shanna

Hello my name is Shanna I've been in the health care industry for 7 years now. The reason why I joined this industry is to show what care really looks like. I've always been a caring person my family is full of nurses, nurse practitioners and cna's so I guess it's embedded into my genes to take care of those who are in need. I enjoy home health the most because it's personal. They get the attention they deserve, the patience they need to continue to progress, the kindness that's needed to know that someone is there for them, and the love. Each person I've worked with has become part of my family. And that's something that will never change in my book.

I'm very responsive to patients needs, sometimes you have to pay attention and observe, a lot of the time they either can't or won't Express to you what they may need or be feeling. I've always felt in my heart to care for others, it just comes naturally to me, id help a stranger. I enjoy caregiving because it gives me a great satisfaction to be in the medical field and help others when they sometimes can't help themselves, I've work with patients, dementia, Alzheimer's, stroke, Parkinson's, broken limbs, diabetes, M.S (multiple sclerosis) I've taken care of patients that have had hip and back surgery.,i know how to use a blood pressure cuff read and write log, empty catheter Foley, administrator meds as needed, bath, dress, i know how to turn someone who is bed ridden, i know how to transfer bed to wheelchair vise versa I'm a very quick study, every patient is different in their needs and care. I am always willing to modify to meet their particular needs...personal achievement I'm 57yrs and i still love doing this more than any other type of job I've ever had.

1. I became a caregiver because I am naturally drawn towards helping others. 2. I like being a caregiver because I am earning a living by making someones life easier, which makes me feel I am doing a job that has meaning and is worthwhile. 3. A personal achievement I'm proud of is when I became a mother. 4. My other passion is natural health.
