I started caring for seniors when I was in high school and worked at a skilled nursing facility in rural Wisconsin as a dietary aide. I loved interacting with the senior patients. Shortly after I began working as a CNA part time while attending college. I also provided private hospice care. In my spare time, I like to outdoor activities. I love to garden. I enjoy hiking, kayaking, and fishing. I also enjoy indoor activities such as organizing, and crafts. I was raised "Mennonite" in a very conservative family oriented community in rural Wisconsin. All community members pitched in and took turns to assist in care of elderly in their own homes where they could be comfortable and remain in familiar surroundings. As a child and teen I assisted in the care of my great grandparents and grandfather before they passed. My skills include mobility assistance and rom exercises, medication, and hygiene. I also have experience with tube feeding, wound care, catheter care, and memory care.
