I become a Caregiver (CNA) because I love to help others. I always put them first and I want to make sure that whatever they need help with that day gets done and its done with love. It makes me so happy when I can put a big smile of their face it lets me know I have done my job right. I am not only a Caregiver I also love to become friends and get to know them and also their families.

I really love and enjoy helping and caring for others it really makes me feel great and makes my day to know I helped someone get through their day.

I've always enjoyed taking care of people. I took care of my grandmother and mother until there death. I have a gentle and caring heart. I love being the extended hands to those who need it. I know how to listen and I know how to be understanding. I would love the opportunity to serve in this capacity.

Hey i'm Elizabeth I have been a caretaker for 19 years and 13 of them years an CNA & med tech. I love caring for others and treating them like my own family.

Hello, My name is Ashley Powers I'm from a small town called Bennett in North Carolina. I've been doing caregiving ever since I was a teenager, just looking after my own grandparents. Caregiving makes me feel important as a person. I enjoy the bond I share with each patient of mine. I enjoy sitting and talking with them and hearing all of their stories they share even if it's the same one multiple times. I believe I'm a wonderful caregiver because I have a passionate heart and I treat each and every one as if they were my own family.

Hello, My name is Heather Herring, I am a 39 year old mother of two. I have played the "caregiver" role for as long as I can remember, my mother always making sure to note what a nurturing and caring mother I would be one day when I was a child. I grew up to become just that, but I also grew up and became the caregiver to more than just my own two babies, but also to many others family members. Becoming a CNA first, then a RN later, I have taken care of countless people, and their loved ones. Taking an oath to advocate always for my patients and be their number one supporter and voice if need be so they received the care and attention that they need. I have provided resources to those who weren't quite sure what they needed and assisted them along the way in the right direction they needed to go. I have helped patients remain as independent as possible while also assisting them when needed in regards to the patients activities of daily living. Unfortunately it's the little things as we get older that keeps patients from maintaining their independence and it's an honor to be able to assist others with those little things that enable patients to remain in their home, their comfortable place, for as long as possible, while being that liaison between patient and provider, bridging the two together so that patients can receive the care and medical attention they need without necessarily having to go into a doctors office, but rather right there in the comforts of one's own home. Everyone is someone's daughter or son, and as they age and their health starts to decline they deserve the same care, love, and support as that I would provide my own two children. And if you know me at all, you know that I love my children more than anything else in this world. Just as my mother told me growing up, how she knew I was gonna be the best "lil mama" as she put it, I strive to give my patients the same amount of care and love as I do my own because in ways they do become family.

Hey, I'm Rebekah, I'm 20 years old and I love helping people! I loved hanging out with my grandma before she passed! We would talk for hours and hours! One of my personal achievements that I am most proud of is getting to witness my nephew being born! I want to be a caregiver to give someone a person they can look too, a person that they can be friends with!
