Brightwood College - Hammond

Taking care of my grandmother who passed away from lung cancer is the reason why I am in the medical field. I am a Certified Medical Assistant who has the expertise of treating any one with compassion as well as a kind heart. Treating my patients like if they are my own family is what I'd want a caregiver to do with my love ones.

I have 25 years in the medical field. I worked as an Anesthesia Tech. Emergency Medical Tech,cardiovascular tech. Home health aide. I am very Friendly,compassionate and patient.I love to care for people in need and working with the senior community is an honor.

I am a compassionate, nurturing, very attentive and responsible professional. I love and enjoy taking care of people. I also have other certifications and licenses in cosmetology and culinary arts. I have over a year of experience as a cosmetologist and 14+ years of experience in the Navy as a Culinary Specialist. My life has always revolved around people, taking care of them and making them happy. I am certified in home health aide, CPR and I am a Certified Nurse Assistant.

I am 24 years old, and I love taking care of and helping others. Caregiving is just my first step into my career of becoming a nurse. I went to Brightwood College where I completed the Certified Nurses Assistant program and obtained my CNA license. I am patient, understanding and always smiling. I take pride in my job, and enjoy waking up in the morning happy to go to work.

WHAT MAKES ME A GREAT CAREGIVER IS THAT I WAS ONE FOR 22 YEARS TO MY SPECIAL NEEDS SON UNTIL HIS PASSING IN 2015. AFTERWARDS, I FELT THAT I HAD TO GIVE TO OTHERS WHAT WAS GIVEN TO ME, LOVE AND COMPASSION. MY BIGGEST ACCOMPLISHMENT WAS RETURNING BACK TO SCHOOL AT BRIGHTWOOS COLLEGE TO BECOME A CERTIFIED CLINICAL MEDICAL ASSISTANT

I am a highly spirited, encouraging, compassionate, attentive individual who loves caring for the elderly. I have over 20 years experience in the healthcare field taking care of seniors with all types of illnesses.. I am a great companiion. I can be entertaining or I can be quiet. I enjoy walking, reading ,swimming and traveling. I am neat, organized and professional in all aspects. I have outstanding reference letters that speak about my character.

What makes me a great caregiver is that every since I seen my mother pass and wasn't able to do anything to help her it just upsetted me I realize that I wanted to be able to help others, so I took the class for CNA1. I love talking and listening to the stories that they tell when they where growing up and alot of the elderly has been in WW1 and WW2. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the love you give them and the love they have for you, that I can make a big difference in someone life.
