Shorter College

I have always been a caregiver ! My first job was an Preschool teacher. What I like about being a care giver is helping and making clients feel good no matter what there illness are. I was able to take care of my mother and a very dear friend mother until they passed. My friend mother chose to have In Home Hospice! I love to care for children and the elderly. I know that this is my passion.

There are many rewards and benefits to working with the elders. This is an extremely important job for our society as people with high levels of care is needed. Working with the elderly gives me a valuable insight into the aging process and what's to come.

I am a recently NC certified CNA, but I have been working in Personal Care for about 5 years now. I am also a young person who I very compassionate and loves working with geriatric clients.

I became a caregiver because I wanted to provide excellent companionship to the seniors and individuals with disabilities. I like the camaraderie that senior citizen offer to their community and the connections. My personal achievement that I'm proud of is having the courage to return to school. I am a very compassionate, loving person that strive to give something back to my community.
