Carl Sandburg High School

Most of my life I have worked in childcare,but the last several years I worked with an older woman and found it very rewarding. The biggest thing that stands out about me is my compassion for others. My life is worth living if I'm truly doing something to make someone else's life better. My heart truly goes out to the elderly,and I enjoy keeping them company,giving them something to look forward to,and being myself,naturally finding what makes their day! I'm a kind-hearted,patient and energetic person,and I love have a purpose and being there for others!

I am about compassionate about taking care of others that need a helping hand in their life. I am very patient with people. Just knowing that I help someone out.

1. As I was raised by my grandmother when I was younger, naturally, I get along amiably with older adults in my present profession. In serving them, I know that my grandmother would be proud of me. Most of all, I enjoy the friendship of each resident, as well as they enjoy mine. It has always been a fulfilling experience to work as a caregiver. 2. My favorite part is building trusting relationships among residents, co-workers, supervisors, visitors, etc. 3. No matter what the challenge or experience, I have my passion for health-care to offer knowing that I'm helping to empower a community. 4. I have had four years of experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant. I work exceptionally well in the area of geriatrics, having cared for residents in independent living, assisted living, and hospice. To further expand my experience in healthcare, I am beginning my enrollment at St. Catherine University this fall 2014 pursuing the Dual Degree Nursing Program.
