About Chrissena

I have been a caregiver for almost 20 years now I have worked in multiple places like nursing homes, hospitals, assisted living, in home settings, and even worked for a nursing agency where I traveled around and work two different facilities I even got to work in the prison for a short time. I am compassionate and try to take my time with everybody that I take care of I think of them as family. I have been told that I go above and beyond to make sure that my clients are safe happy and having a good day no matter the case. the thing I enjoy most about being caregiver is the fact that I get to help somebody, make their day brighter, and just give them companionship when sometimes they don't have it. I am about to finish my prerequisites to get into the nursing program I want to eventually get my BSN and be an advocate for both the clients and the workers to make sure everyone is safe they have what they need to do their job appropriately and to be taken care of it accordingly.

Hi, my names Christina I've been a caregiver for about 2 years. I first found my passion for caregiving working in an Adult Family Home working with Adults with Developmental Disabilities, I then moved on and got my Home Care Aid License and started working with Eldery Adults in their homes. I've worked with a variety of clients ranging with needs of light housekeeping and companion care to clients on Hospice. I have a very bubbly and warm personality, you'll rarely find me without a smile on my face. I'm a compassionate and caring Caregiver. I'm neat and tidy, I'm self motivated, and timely. I would love the opportunity to meet with your family to see if my caregiving style and experience meets you or your families needs. **I live in Vader but am willing to travel up to 35 miles
