About Tabitha

I believe my experiences as a Certified nursing assistant and my fieldwork experience as a Certified Occupational therapy assistant makes me the best caregiver that i can become. I have worked with many patients and families before and I have had the best experiences. It is such a rewarding experience and feeling to Help someone over come an obstacle or a goal that they have been working on . For instance, while completing my occupational therapy fieldwork I assisted this one patient with shaving his face and getting dressed every other day due to his fractured shoulder. When he was getting discharged he was very thankful for helping him and teaching him alternative methods to compensate for his affected arm, that was one of the best experience i' have had as a health care provider.

Hi I'm Ateka, I've been a caregiver for 10yrs. Working as a caregiver is very fulfilling as I enjoy seeing my clients happy and healthy. I believe that you should always take care of those who can't help themselves. In my country of Ethiopia I took care of senior citizens. We believe that the elderly should never suffer nor go into Nursing Homes to be alone. My hope is one day all people who need assistance will be able to get the quality care they need and deserve.

Greetings! Currently working on my undergrad studies as a student of Midwifery. I have 6 years of experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant. I enjoy the outdoors and staying active, but when I'm taking care of elderly I know from hands-on experience that this takes time, compassion, and patience which I hold. I enjoy simple conversations and listening to their wonderful stories (which are many!) they love to talk about. I became inspired to be a CNA by taking care of my grandparents when I was younger, to me, nothing is more rewarding than assisting a person in need to improve their quality of life.
