My belief is empathy is the #1 core characteristic of an excellent caregiver. I often question if this is inherent within us or this is something which can be learned. I tend to believe it’s a lot of inherent and a big mix of environment. I also believe there are degrees of empathy. Some can empathize more than others. If you can totally put yourself in the place of who you are caring for, you will do nothing but provide excellent care. Imagine being unable to obtain your own meal, bathe yourself, get dressed, or go to the bathroom independently. Imagine the feelings involved when you lose that independence and have to ask for help. Imagine having no one to count on when you need them.Besides children, most care recipients are elderly. As we age our bodies no longer move the way they used to. Add an injury, or physical illness and movement is more difficult, slower and may be painful.

I am a great caregiver who have genuine concern for others, caring, conscious and dependable. After retirement I wanted to get back in the workforce in a way that made a difference. I hadn't considered senior care not until my aunt became ill and was hospitalized. There was no one to care for her so I moved her into my home and nursed her back to health. After spending several years assisting senior friends and family with personal ADL needs I decided I will enroll as a PCA to learn the job of a home health aide and become certified, which I did and now I am enjoying it. Most older adults wants to maintain an independent lifestyle, but not all of them have family members close by who can assist when necessary. My caring nature, friendly persona, professional training, and experience ensure that I provide my clients with the best care. I am willing to be on-call to lend a helping hand. I am also CPR certified. I am proud of being a trusted, dependable, reliable, caretaker for individuals who need assistance and I am there to offer the assistance with an open heart. I sincerely hope the information I have provided here convince you of my suitability for this job. I welcome an opportunity to meet you in person to discuss my prospects of becoming a part of your establishment in greater detail.
