Elizabeth’s Bio
I am a CNA and have been working in long-term care and assisted living/memory care units for 2 years. I am CPR certified as well as BLS/first aid. I also have experience in phlebotomy. As a CNA I am one if the first people my residents see when they wake up. I see them when theyre in pain, when they feel like complaining, when they hug me because they want to say thank you, when they are confused and need redirecting, when they need to cry and have someone hold their hand.... My residents know me by name, (Even if it isnt actually my name, at least they are consistent) they trust me and look to me for help, comforting and care. My residents are not a paycheck. My residents are not the number room they live in or their diagnosis. My residents are people and they have a family. Me, as their caregiver that they see almost everyday, I am apart of their family. They are an extension of my family.
