Alzheimer's Disease Caregivers in Henry County - 13 caregivers found

Hello. I have been a caregiver for a long time. I have always had a compassionate personality and feel the need to help people. I feel like this makes me a great CNA.

Hi. My name is Becky. I have been a caregiver for over 20 years and still love it. I have a heart and passion for working with the elderly. I love helping them with their daily lives, chores, (helping with bathing, dressing, light house cleaning, cooking and feeding. Medicine reminders or giving medicine to them)and keeping them active. I have worked with clients that range with nothing wrong they just wanted companionship to ones who have dementia, and on hospice care. It makes me happy knowing that I can help them and help their families and giving them a break when they need one. I understand being a caregiver is a hard job and can be overwhelming at times for families. If I can help them out that is what I want to do. I love hearing their stories and about the old days for them.

I enjoy the one on one interacting with others. I love making a difference in others life it makes my heart happy.

I am an outgoing individual, so it helps me connect with residents easier, I am not just a caregiver, but a friend as well to my residents.

It makes me feel good knowing I can make a difference in their lives.

Hi!! My name is Cindy. I am 41 yrs old and have been married to my best friend for 13 years. We have no children. I have been working in geriatrics for 20+ years. It's my passion. I have worked in skilled nursing homes, assisted living homes, hospitals, Alzheimer's units, and my personal favorite in home settings. I have had CNA certification, med tech, first aid and CPR, diabetic care training, wound care, and more. I take great pride in my work. It's more than a paycheck to me.

Hi my name is Layla I'm 18 and I go to Murray State University. I am young but I am a hard worker. I have only worked in nursing homes however I have had to deal with a lot of medical issues at home as well. I am very compassionate and love to talk. I love helping other people in time of need.

I am a very outgoing and friendly person who loves to talk to others. I have two grandparents with Alzheimer's and understand what it is like to watch a loved one suffer from this disease. I am dedicated to making their day better and being a companion!

I first started out through Addus Health Care in Marion, Illinois. At the time I did not know what I was really doing, it was just a starter job until I could find the job that I was truely looking for. Within the first couple of weeks that Addus Health Care, they were sending me to different clients homes, it took a little while for me to start feeling comfortable. The people who I got to come in contact with, and help with their daily living schedules; were so nice and so good to me; they were so loving, and it was the people who showed me so much love who made me want to show all my love back and they made me want to help them; but most of all through all the months and years that I had devoted my life with these people; it became where I just didn't want to share my love with them; I needed to show them because I need them as much as they need me. I love helping other people and getting to become a special part of their lives and families. I continued my education into CNA and CPR classes and have graduated, and am now State Certified through Tennessee.

Three years ago, my grandmother was diagnosed with Stomach and lung cancer. Shortly after her diagnosis, she had a stroke and was unable to do much of anything for herself. I took care of my grandparents until my grandma passed away last year. I realized that helping people was something that I really valued and took a job as CNA at the hospital and loved the work I did there. My favorite part was helping the patients to achieve things they thought that they couldn't by offering them an arm to hold onto and some encouraging words.

Iam a very loving caring person who enjoys what I can do for others..i enjoy making someones life a lot easier and to give comfort and encouraging words whenever needed..i have been thru many trials of my own and have walked in others shoes so I feel that I have what it takes to be a caregiver to someone..
