Hello! My name is Alyssa. I have been volunteering with Young Life Capernaum for 4 years. Young Life Caperanum is a ministry that reaches high schoolers with differing abilities. I have 4+ years of paid experience as a personal care assistant (PCA), assisting those with different abilities. I have a wide experience of ages, along with cognitive and physical disabilities. Further, I am a Certified Nursing Assistant (in the state of Colorado), First Aid/CPR certified and have experience working in a hospital. I love helping people reach their goals and assisting them within their daily lives. The world around us can move so quickly, sometimes all we need is a different way or a little more time. I am patient, compassionate and will assistant your loved one with reaching their goals/needs. In the past those whom I have worked for have become family to me. I am looking forward to meeting you!
