Profile
I was made by God to be a care taker. I have always loved the work by seeing my mom do CNA work for 29yrs and seeing her make a big change in her residents' lives and their families. It made me make a career decision to be part of the healthcare industry. I started school March of 2011 to be a CNA and then proceeded with getting my Qmap to be able to administer medications. I then decided to learn about Alzheimers and dementia because my grandmother had a stroke and it affected her memory and I wanted to know how that affects people that have it and their loved ones to who live with someone with memory loss. I worked for a private owned home where there were 8 residents in my care. I worked for a other private owned company where they had 3 homes of 10 to 12 residents in my care. I also worked private in a resident's home for 3 clients. I worked in 1 facility where I was a lead Qmap/ Care associate and was in charged of 2 CNAs and cared for 25 residents. I love the work I do and spending time with my residents. I'm very outgoing and understanding. I have a big heart and patience. I love having a big impact on my residents and their families. I give the best care that I can and treat my clients like they are my loved one in my own care.
