Additionally, my expertise in understanding the unique needs of elderly and memory unit patients allows me to tailor my approach to each individual, ensuring their comfort and well-being. I was drawn to being a caregiver due to my innate desire to make a positive impact in the lives of others. The opportunity to provide support, companionship, and assistance to elderly and memory unit patients resonated with me deeply. I find fulfillment in being able to enhance their quality of life and bring comfort to both them and their families during challenging times. One of the aspects I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the meaningful relationships I develop with the individuals under my care. Building trust and rapport with them allows me to provide not only physical assistance but also emotional support. Witnessing their moments of joy, gratitude, and resilience brings me immense fulfillment and reinforces my dedication to this profession. A personal achievement I am proud of is the positive impact I have had on the lives of those I have cared for throughout my career. Whether it's helping a patient achieve a personal milestone, providing comfort during difficult times, or simply being a reliable source of support, knowing that I have made a difference in their lives fills me with a sense of pride and fulfillment.

I went to nursing school in 2014. I have my degree in Science (AAS), and was working in a nursing home as a nurse assistant for 3 years. I really enjoyed with my elderly residents and taking care of their needs. In 2021, I started working for Carelinx and I've really enjoyed helping and meeting new people. I'm currently working to get my bachelor's as a geriatric nurse. One day, I hope to work in a nursing home to help my residents.
