I have always had the desire to help and care for people and became a licensed CNA when I was 16 yrs old. I have had many years working various work settings... private duty, nursing homes, hospitals and independent living programs, including 8 years in the mental health field. I was a direct care counselor for the brain injured, developmentally disabled adults, Asperger's, autistim and various other mental health and cognitive issues. My goal is to enrich the lives of others and assist with improving independence and social interaction. I'm very compassionate, patient, honest and have an impeccable work ethic. I strive to do my best and take great pride in my abilities as a nurse assistant. My outstanding reviews speak for themselves! Have a blessed day :-)
