I've always been a music person. Always. That's what I want to do with my life. Teach music or perform it. So when I became a CNA I never thought that I would enjoy it. But I'm glad I decided to become a CNA. I love my job. I love spending time with my residents. Being a CNA is so rewarding. You get to form bonds with amazing people. You get to hear wonderful stories and learn so many life lessons from those stories. I am helping people that are not able to take care of themselves. I'm constantly looking out for the best interests of my residents.

One time I sung for my residents and one of them cried because they were so touched. It made me cry. I'm able to pursue both of my passions. Music and helping people. It feels amazing to provide care for the elderly. It feels great to make my residents day by just talking to them and making sure that they have everything that they need. I love helping people. I always have. Being a CNA is amazing.

I feel rewarded for being able to look after such great people. I love getting attached to nice, wonderful people. But it's hard when your residents pass away. Especially the ones you have taken care of for a long time. You create a special bond with them and it's heartbreaking when they're gone. But I'm glad to be able to make they're last few days the best that they can be. I'm glad to be able to give my residents some type of comfort before they leave to a better place. Music is still my passion but I'm glad I am able to help take care of my precious residents that I love and cherish.
