Caregiving versus CNA what's the difference

A caregiver is a non medical worker whom provides assistance in daily living. A CNA works directly under a registered nurse performing medical tasks. 

Are you from Tucson?

We moved from California to Tucson to seek a new beginning. We had a tramatic loss by a car accident and could no longer afford California without my husband. We have been blessed and well taken care of by family and the church.

What do you do for self care?

I do much better when I exercise.  I enjoy breathing exercises as well. For self care, I soak up the sunshine and look at the amazing mountains we are surrounded by. 

Is it okay to text and check in on my mom during a shift?

Yes. At any time. Feel welcome to call, stop by unannounced, and set up cameras. The more vaunerability the better the communication .

Do you provide medical supplies?

Good question.  I do not bring anything other than some gloves. Please provide all cleaning supplies as well.

Is there an emergency protocol?

Yes absolutely.  Just as if I was to watch a small child, I need to know what to do in an emergency. Hospital or ambulance preferences are very important. 

Is it legal for you to be working for your self?

Yes. Arizona state law allows me to work for myself as an unmedical professional. I have my CNA certification but to utilize it properly, I need to be under a registered nurse. This is why I am a cargiver.
