About Ama

I am a Virginian and have my 120hrs Nursing Assistant education and have my certificate. Also I have my PPD and CPR , I am legible to work in the United States of Amerca. What makes me a great caregiver is to make the elderly happy , make sure their needs are met like ADLs, I love being a caregiver because I took care of my grandmother when I was 15 years, love cooking with them, accompanying them to appointment , running errands, reading, watching movies and keeping them company. My personal achievement am proud of is when I made an elderly who was depressed happy by doing things she loves to do which she hasn't done for a long time .
