About Martinique

My name is Martinique (call me Mari ), and I have been a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) for two years. I honestly love what I do! Although some people may look at me as a cleaner or waitress, I see myself as an important part of the health care team. With pride I assist the nurse with wound care, collecting blood, among other tasks. With pride, I lend an ear for concerns, fears, and uncertainties to my patients. With pride, I help with urinals, bedpans, baths, and changing linen. These are important things to be done and if I am on your team, believe that it will be done well and with a smile. Many times I have encouraged a patient to take medication, because they gave the nurse a hard time. I always encourage my patients to ask questions because they do not understand certain things.
