Greetings! My name is Ami and I am a single mother to a 4 year old boy named Henry! I feel that I am a great caregiver by having an enormously big heart full of compassion and empathy. I care so deeply for people and their health needs. Compassion and Empathy are two qualities that they don't teach caregivers in school because they simply aren't able to. A person has to have acquired those qualities on their own. I am currently attending Green River College to complete my prerequisites for the Diagnostic Ultrasound Program! Obtaining my CNA certification is a prerequisite for the program but my reason for becoming a caregiver goes beyond that. My grandfather was in a memory care unit due to his Alzheimer's disease. I was able to witness the care that he was given by caregivers and realized that I wanted to provide residents/patients/clients with the same level of care so that I could make a difference in that persons life wether they still had a quality of life left or not. It's never easy losing a family member. And it's not any easier losing a resident that you have cared for as a caregiver. But being able to provide high quality care gives me a sense of positive achievement. What I love most about being a caregiver is getting to know the people that I care for. I treat them each like family and feel like they are my family away from home. A personal achievement that I am proud of is getting a 4.0 GPA in all three CNA courses for my Certificate through Green River College. I was the only student in my class to have received 100% testing score on my Skills Exam. I am looking forward to meeting your family and family member in need of my high quality care! Thanks for your consideration!
