About Shelena

From the earliest childhood memory I can recall, I have always wanted to be in the nursing field. I enjoy helping others and being a certified nursing assistant is the first step I have chosen to work towards my end goals of obtaining my Registered Nursing license, then pursuing a career in psychology. I am very compassionate and posses empathy. I enjoy working with people of all ages, and have continuously broadened my knowledge base to provide the best quality of care. I have my CNA license, the Basic Life Support from the American Heart Association, and the Nurse Delegation core training, as well as the Nurse Delegation: Special Focus on Diabetes. I have worked as a caregiver in some capacity since I turned 18, and privately helped with family members before then. I am honest, trustworthy, organized and dependable.

I love what I do as a caregiver, I love helping out or making vulnerable people feel cared for, loved and comfortable by all means because they deserve quality life. I love adding value to people's lives. Being a caregiver I am able to interact directly with my clients and this way I get to know them better and in this way I am able to deliver quality care. I once helped my grandpa at his old age even without any skills of caregiving by then. I ensured he had a quality life by attending to his needs and being his companion and this made him happy
