About Magdalena

I enjoy helping others, and one of the things I like is to get engage the client and family in their care. I love cooking and reading, I love to engage into a routine that makes my client confident on his/her care. However, at times some people likes to pick what ever they like to do daily, still, there is no problem with that! I am a happy person, I enjoy making my client smile and keep with good spirit. I enjoy the outdoors and keeping my client active. I have worked for hospice as well, and I do not have a problem seating with someone and just listen, or also just keep silent while things do not go the way they expected. I have a great training with Alzheimer's disease and dementia; and here, I really enjoy the elderly! I received my CNA/HHA certification in 1997. I moved from California to Virginia and have not attended school here. I do have a valid with very good clean driving record DL and a CPR training if need it and I am well trained when doing safe transfers. I am working in a hospital .8 was hired to be clear; but I want to work more.

I believe that we are all special, unique, different and with a purpose for our existence here on earth. For the many years that I have been taking care of the military men and women, I have loved the joy and appreciation that they give back. It is without a doubt that I will take a great care of your loved one just like I would care for my own. For me, life is a gift that comes from God and therefore, it must be respected.
