My rates are negotiable, I like to be flexible to hopefully suit the needs of everyone. I have been a CNA for 20 years with 5 years experience on a dementia - alzheimers unit. What makes me a great caregiver is my patience and understanding. I am a very compassionate type person and love to get to know the patient as well as the family. I became attracted on becoming a caregiver when I learned how broad of a spectrum I could work in. There is so much to learn and plenty of room for advancement. What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is making that one particular patient smile that never does. What a great accomplishment I feel this is. Brings me such joy to be able to bring a little sunshine to the patients life. My biggest personal achievement that I am very proud of is raising my 2 wonderful boys on my own with only my mothers help at times. They have both become very productive in their lives and love to return the favors to mom.
