About Nikyta

Hello, my name is Nikyta! I have been with the home health care field since 2016. I began as a home health aide after high school graduation and entered Angelina College Community Program to become a Certified Nurse Assistant in the year of 2018. In the year of 2019, I wanted to have a geographical experience to where I wanted to see how the physical world shaped such as rivers, mountains, and climate, but also to see how the physical world shapes the people that lives there too. So I began the process of becoming a traveling Certified Nurse Assistant. I did this as I was also working in skilled nursing facility in my community. Unfortunately, life had disrupted this plan to where I could not renew my CNA state license in 2020. Covid emerged, but I courageously gave care to my patients that courageously stayed during the hard times. I stayed connected via phone to the patients that made the difficult but wise decision for themselves and loved ones to let go of their attendant. I enjoy socializing with my patients by them getting to know and me getting to know them. I love to cook to where at the end of high school I debated to got to a culinary school too. I enjoy learning different cleaning techniques because not everyone cleans with the same chemicals or way due to different cultures and many contributing factors. I am an online University part-time student. Attending Southern New Hampshire University pursuing a BA in Social Psychology since 2022 as I work part-time as a home health giver and voluntary work with my community.

I was raised up caring for people beginning in my own family. At the nudging of my mother, I became an LVN in 1985. After the passing of my father, I neglected to keep my LVN license current but remained in the field of caring. I enjoy helping others accomplish their day as well as family members observing positive change in a homebound loved one. I have a long history in caring which include but not limited to, psych care, dementia, hearing and vision impairment, physical disabilities and so on. I take my work seriously and respect individuals for who they are as well as what they may be going through.

My personal experience with caregiving began with my mom, who I took care of until she passed. I realized that this job was a good fit for me because of that. I am a people person, and getting to help someone that needs it makes me feel great! I love to smile and try to make at least one person smile daily. I am a fast learner, and love a challenge.
