Hello! I have been a CNA for five years and have learned so much. Recently I have been interested in working with special needs as I go through nursing school, and am hoping to find the perfect fit here on care!
Growing up I cared for my little brother with autism. I would give him his medicine in the morning and at night, make sure he gets a diaper on before bed, figure out what to make for dinner as he was a very picky eater, etc.. I feel as though I am a very patient person who cares for everyone.
