Vanessa’s Bio

I am a caring, responsible, loving, dependable, trustworthy, kind, and reliable caregiver who loves her job and seeking for employment. I am a very compassionate person who enjoys helping others. I have been a caregiver since 2006 and also a CNA / GNA since 2008. I do also have my CPR and First Aid cert. Caring for others is my passion and would want to make a difference in their life. I have experience with working with Alzheimer's, dementia, MS, diabetic, paraplegic, brain injury, stroke and parkinson patients. I have worked in the nursing homes, assisted living, and private duty (one on one). I have also done some respite care so I am not afraid of a failing health or any health condition. I can assist the patient with their daily living skills, personal care, dispensing meds, cooking, housekeeping,shopping, doctor's appointment and attend community activities. I don't smoke, drink or do drugs, can work with cats and dogs. I can also change colostomy bags, flush a PEG or feeding tube and set it up, transfer with hoyer lifts, and straight catheter.
