Hello my name is leslie Parkinson. I been in this field since 1990. I worked in a nursing home for 10yrs. Worked with people with learning disabilities and also mental illness. I began working in the health care field. When my mother was diagnosed with sugar diabetes.

I am a caregiver by nature, I love what I do. I worked in this field since I was 20 yrs old. I have many years of experience working with the elderly with a variety of conditions. I am caring, dependable, honest and have referrals.

What makes me a great caregiver is, my experience and the years I have worked with both children and elders who have taught me the importance and the great rewards of being patient, caring and understanding. I was attracted to being a caregiver because of the nature in me that desires to assist and provide care to those who cannot help themselves for various reasons. Also, to leave a lasting impact to those I have assisted due to life's limitations in one way or the other. Being a helping hand to the community that needs it. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is knowing that I put a smile on the face of one who needs it and lighting up their spirit. It gives me great satisfaction at the end of the day knowing that I made a difference however small or big in the life of one who needs care and also their families who desire the best for their loved ones. I am humble enough to put myself in a position to learn each and everyday. The ability to learn and grow is a personal great achievement.

I am a retired registered nurse with 40 years nursing experience; including but not limited to psychiatric nursing, home health, emergency room, etc. This lifelong dedication to nursing is what drew me to reenter the workforce as a caregiver, doing what I know best. I am compassionate, patient, and understanding. These are the qualities that have given me a sense of achievement in my career as a nurse and caregiver.

My passion for being a caregiver and soon an RN was brought to life after I met a special nurse while I was receiving treatment for breast cancer 10 years ago. She was a blessing to myself and my family and she was one of the best nurses I have ever met. Her compassion and support truly moved me. It was then that I realized that making someone's life a little easier and brighter is where my heart was.

I became a caregiver because I love helping others. I like being a caregiver because I really enjoy it and I'm a people person. My personal achievement is becoming a certified nursing assistant and I'm a very hard driven person

As a caregiver I like to make sure, my patients feel like they can trust me to take care of them well as their families I am well known as being a very responsible nice spiritual loving person easy to get along with easy to ask me to do something I just want the patient to feel very well taken care of and my watch I am also a very outgoing person and have an nice sense of humor and very mindful of different cultures and anything on their care plan will get done in orderly nicely fashion as expected of working.

I became a caregiver because I love to help people. It gives me great pleasure to know that I was able to make someone's day that much easier. I am caring, compassionate, and empathetic, as well as punctual and hard working. I have my CNA certification and I an cpr certified and registered through two medicaid agencies in the area. I have experience in all areas including working with those with dementia.

I became a caregiver because I care about people and believe everyone deserves to be treated with respect. My mom and step father both have been sick and I was very upset with the level of care provided to them and decided I wanted to make a difference, even if a small one. I'm very proud of switching careers from mortgage banking to CNA which was a big step for me and I plan on finishing my degree to become a nurse.
