Already have 2 Clients!
I have a 2nd client, an on call client, a man in his 70s recovery
from a stroke, I have already worked twice to help care for him. Once
for a few hours and the 2nd time overnight.
When I make him his meals he likes me to eat with him, plus I understand no one likes to eat alone.
Anyway I love working as a Nurse Assistant Independently! I wont be taking anymore clients until after Fall 2014.

Self-Employed Nurse Assistant - My First Client!
So 2.5 weeks ago I interviewed for my first client. I was excited and nervous because 1) it was my first client after training to become a nurse assistant 2) and had no experience except for my clinicals and 3) havent interviewed for any job in a long time as well as doing it independently.
The interview went well and I started the following Monday. : D
Last week was my first week and she is a 96 year old independent Jewish lady, very sweet and stays in a lovely retirement community.
Im so happy to be doing what I set out to do more than 2 years ago and independently under no company or anything. Just last night I got referred to another part time client and I will be calling about them today or tomorrow.
I still plan to get certified in the Fall and still volunteer at the hospital on Wednesdays.
My vision initially when getting a client was taking her or him to the movies and such, but because of the circumstances and the kind of scooter she has its kind of hard, so I just bring her presents instead.
I want to treat my clients like family or really good friends at least. :)

Whats New?
So I know its been a minute since I posted about my CNA status so I thought I would update yall. I still have not taken my state test, honestly I am REALLY nervous and I have had a lot going on this Summer, because my daughter has been sick, family in town and going on vacation so far and everything else in between.
I think in the Fall after my daughter goes back to school I will take the state test. I just want to do it once and pass. I know thats putting a lot of pressure on myself but this being a state test is very stressful in itself.
I have been doing heavy local marketing through Care.com and applying for jobs for independent senior home care, using my facebook page and such to seek out local clients just 1-2 solid good clients is all I want. I have my first meeting with a perspective client next week. :D I will still be volunteering at the hospital weekly. Plus on top of that working my online business.
Other than that continuing with my work at home job housekeeping & pet sitting.
Thinking down the line of still going to school to become a Clinical Medical Assistant because I dont want my education to stop there and I want to learn more skills. :)
