About Lee

I pursued a CNA license because I want a job where I can help people for a living. I was in a traumatic car accident that caused me to need to stay nearly a month in a hospital. I came to know what needing help feels like and also what genuine care feels like and what impersonal care feels like. I have had nursing assistants who gave me care as if I were family while I also have had nursing assistants who gave very cold care as if I were not a person at all. I want to give the same level of genuine care to others as I would expect to receive if I were in their position.

I have a tendency of going beyond my job description, at work, I like to hear how the patient's day is going and build a friendly relationship with them. By doing so, I know and understand them better, mood wise and attitude. Being a caregiver disciplines me and shows me the other side of people who can not help themselves, so it becomes a blessing to say I help others. I also dance so physical fitness is also one of my passion along with physical therapy. I am proud of the fact that anytime a patient gets discharged, a thank you card is left with my name on it. My job is not easy but hearing a thank you makes it better.

I become a caregiver when my mom got sick. I realize at that moment I will be a good aide. I love taking care of people. I really enjoy the feeling of putting a smile on someone's face. letting them know they can always count on me to be there to assist when the needs arises. I have recieved awards for my job. I have families who still keep in touch with me because of how wonderful i took care of their love ones. I have achieve so many things from being a care giver. like getting to know the different backgrounds of my clients. but my great achievements is putting a smile on their faces. Am a hardworking girl who enjoys her job as a caregiver. I have 7 years experience.
