Hello! My name is Nakeisha Woods. I've been a Caregiver/CNA for 6 years. My first job in life was working as a private duty caregiver in an assisted living facility. I enjoyed working with seniors so much, I made my mind up to make it my career. What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is having the chance to experience that meaningful relationship with your clients. One personal achievement I'm proud of is my decision to go back to school. I currently attend Moraine Valley, pursing their Nursing program. If all goes well, I plan to become a private duty RN, maybe have my own company one day!

I've been in the medical field for 20 years, I've work with patients with multiple health care needs. I enjoy being able to care for those that need assistance in their daily lives.

I like to help people and understand the people that needs help

1. I became a caregiver to make a difference in many people lives who can not care or do some of the things in life that they could do before their health failed them. 2. I Love making patients feel that they still have their independence and that they can still be productive and apart of family and society. 3. I think that obe personal achievement was that I made a decision to be A Certified Nurses Assistant. I have always Loved taking care of the elderly and other people. I have alot of compassion towards their feelings. 4. My name is Diane Ratliff and I'm happily married for 30 yrs. I have 2 beautiful children and 3 wonderful grandchildren. I have resided at my resistance for 30 yrs and I have a dog and fish tank they are my babies. I have worked in my field for a little over 25 yrs in a variety of settings from Hospitals, Nursing Homes, Private Duty to Home Health. I really Love what I do especially when I bring just a glimmer of a smile because of my care for my patients and their families.

I am a great care giver because I love helping other young or older. I want people to help me once I'm not able to do things on my own plus someone who would provide care to my family as well. helping others shouldn't be a problem to anyone because at some point of time everyone is going to need a little help and some might need more help then others. I recently just finished taking my nursing classes for a CNA position and soon to return for my LPN because I'm all about helping others in need of it and more. I enjoy having conversations with people I'm a very talkative person and I like to know how others day is going for them. I have two toddlers that I clean teach and care for and its a big job that I love doing and I'm so good at it I want to help others just like I'm helping my grandmother recover from the cancer treatments and surgeries because she needs me so I want to be that person that is willing to help those in need that just me.

I became a caregiver because of the fact that I Love to help others. I have been a caregiver since I was 8yrs old taking care of my ill grandmother and my uncle that had lung cancer. I like being a caregiver to render my services to love to those we need it.

I love what i do.I first started by volunteering at my aunts senior community that she runs and i loved it.from there i became my mothers caregiver when she had her stroke.I worked for an agency for years then i got my own client which he just passed away in June 2201.Im a great caregiver i have great references,i have patience,experience,reliable and genuinely love what i do.

I Have Been A Caregiver For 26yrs.I enjoy helping people especially when they do not have family or just not feeling well.When I could make them smile that lets me know that I am appreciated and I know at the end of the day I made someone feel just a little bit better than the day before..I am reliable,honest and I can get the job done..I attended the Alzheimers walk at the Atlanta Zoo and completed the Alzheimers course.

I am a great caregiver because I have been doing it my whole life. I grew up with an elderly father so from the age of about 12 until now I have been taking care of him. From cleaning up for him behind him, and cleaning him I have done it all and am willing to do it all again for other people. What I like about being a caregiver is knowing that I'm helping somebody that can't help themselves, Not to say it in a bragging manner but in a proud honor because i know if they could they would do it themselves. I see it as paying good favors forward because when I am old I hope someone does the same for me.
