About James

Hi there! My name is James and I became a CNA after attending the accredited program at South Seattle College in 2014. I get joy and a sense of fulfillment when working with people and helping them to accomplish their goals. Since becoming a CNA, I have continued with school and I have completed my Associates of Science. While working, I have obtained Certifications for Dementia Care and Nurse Deligation. Before becoming a CNA, I was a Commercial Diver that traveled all over. I have been to most of the Americas and a little bit of Europe. I have a story for just about every conversation! I find that older folks have some really interesting things to share, if one is willing to listen a bit. Earlier in life I was a Calvaryman in the US Army. I was able then to become a Combat Life Saver. That was my introduction to healthcare and I am grateful for the experience.

    Hello, my name is Elisa I am 59 years old My caregiving started in 1995 , as my Mother became ill , I knew she would want a high level of in home care that I would personally be able to provide. As her illness became more advanced , it was important to me that she be able to stay in her home where she would be more comfortable. A few time a week turned into every day, then several hours a day. My Mothers wishes to be at home in her time of need was fulfilled . And it was a blessing and a honor to be there for her. I found myself wanting to give other families the same opportunity my Mother was given. I continued working closely with other families as well as with the IHSS of King Co. from 1995 till 2001.Then in California in Contra Costa Co. From 2002 - 2009 then , I returned back to Washington State where I have continued my work with private families. I am available to start giving the best care to your loved ones or yourself and give the same opportunity to remain safely in your home. I am currently approved, on the Home Health Care Registry . Please feel free to see a full work history upon request. References can be provided upon request. I have been given the covid vaccine .
