  About Me
 
My name is Beth. I was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska. I went to Catholic school from the age of three until I graduated from high school. My husband Dave and I got married in 2003. We have a thirteen year old son and three daughters, ages ten, nine, and six. We often go fishing as a family. During the winter and on rainy days we like to play board games, Wii, Xbox360 and put together jigsaw puzzles. I also enjoy gardening, reading, bike riding and cooking. Holidays are a big deal around our home, as everyone looks forward to my Thanksgiving turkey and my Christmas prime rib roast. I learned to cook by watching my grandmother and Alton Brown.. gotta love the Food Network. Since graduating high school, I have become a certified nursing assistant and a certified medication aide. I received my training for both of these in Omaha in 2005. I have actively worked as a CNA/CMA for the last 6 years. When I moved to Texas in 2011, my certification as medication aide would not transfer, but I am a certified nursing assistant in the state of Texas. I am also CPR certified until April 2015.

  Work Experience & Education Background
 
6 years experience, 4 references
I have been a CNA since 2005. Since that time, I have 6 years experience working in nursing homes as a CNA and/or medication aide. I am familiar with most medications, and know what side effects or adverse reactions to look for with the medications most commonly used with elderly people. In late 2003 and early 2002, I also worked with adults with developmental disabilities such as Down's syndrome, autism spectrum disorders and traumatic brain injuries. In that setting, I assisted young adult to middle age men with daily activities such as grocery shopping, household chores and packing lunches to take to their daytime programs the next day. We also helped them manage their money and took them on outings for social activities such as movies or fairs.
