Helping people is something that I absolutely love to do! I always help take care of my grandparents when they get sick. Giving medications, to help cleaning wounds to running personal errands for them. I believe that is why I love being a care giver. I recently received my certification to become a CNA but I have experience caring for the elderly. It always makes me smile to see them smile. I always receive the compliment that I am patient with the elderly. I know how I want to be treated if I could not help myself so I treat them the way I want to be treated. I feel accomplished when I complete their task. It is one of my pet peeves to not thoroughly complete a task right the first time. I will not let my patient down!!

I love helping seniors to stay in their own homes. It is such a rewarding job to help out these amazing people. I am a very kind caring compassionate person pretty laid back, but have no problem with getting things done in a timely respectful professional manner. I was raised around elderly people as my mom has been a nurse my entire life and I just have always enjoyed helping seniors.

My grandmother passed in October of 2011 and she was the closet person to me. She suffered from Steven Johnson's Disease which is very detrimental to your body and I remember watching her saying to myself, " I wish there was something I could do to help make things better for her, but in all actuality there was nothing I could do. After watching her go through her medical issues I decided that I wanted to help people with medical needs. I posse an excellent bedside manor as well as I am qualified in all areas including wound care and colostomy cleaning. I pride myself on my attendance and my relationships with my clients.

I am a great caregiver because of my compassion, patience and understanding I have in my heart for my patients as well as the families. I choose to be a caregiver because I cared for my elderly grandparents until they passed away I love caring for others I have been in this field for 11 years and I very greatful for everyone as well as everything I've learned from every family I have ever worked with and will continue to learn as my journey grows.
