I have been a caregiver for 6 years I love helping people hearing stories about you and your life. I try and go above and beyond to make sure you're happy with how I help you. I enjoy helping others and leaning about people. I truly care about my clients and the care they receive

I have some experience with those who need extra care! I was in training to become a CNA, and worked as a task aide for United Helpers for a summer where I provided assistance, companionship and cleaning for elderly residents. I also love helping my grandparents around the house when they need it. Seeing how many people need help with their own family members inspired me to find extra work as a caregiver to help others as well as providing extra income for my own growing family. Being able to put a smile on someone's face and leaving a lasting impression on someone is a great accomplishment for me.

Good caregivers need patience People who need care often take longer to complete simple tasks. As a caregiver, you might have to answer questions over and over. Good caregivers need patience to deal with anything from a loved one's memory lapses to angry outbursts. They practice staying calm and avoiding frustration. to deal with anything from a loved one's memory lapses to angry outbursts. They practice staying calm and avoiding frustration. I believe my most useful qualities in this role are patience and kindness. In my role as a caregiver for the elderly, I had one gentleman who would always buzz me to attend to him, but because he was experiencing memory loss and dementia, when I arrived he would forget he just buzzed me for the same thing. I always showed him kindness and patience, and as a result, he requested me as his caregiver.

I'm very cheerful and very caring. I got into healthcare because I love how awarding the work feels. I love knowing what I'm doing actually means something.

I am a quick witted, quirky person that enjoys being a caregiver because it gives me job satisfaction by knowing I did everything I could do in my day to make someone else's day a little more bearable & easing their minds a little. I am proud of my Degree in the Art of SCIENCE (Criminal Justice) but I am also proud of the certifications I have earned in healthcare.

Honestly, I moved in during the last year leading up to my grandfathers death. He had many issues and heath problems and i helped with everything i could. I administered his meds, emptied his stoma for his colostomy, set up his food & water (kangaroo pump). Laundry, and anything else he needed. I recently moved away from my home town (las vegas) and Im missing him so much. I would love to help out a family that needs someone who's been in their shoes & knows the difficulties of finding quality people to look after their loved ones, and i promise you- I am that girl! Thank you

1. What makes me like a great caregiver is that I treat my patient like my own family, I always to my mind that taking my patient is like I'm also taking care of my family 2. I love doing caregiving because it is my passion to take care of them, love them and give them the needs they needed, 3. I enjoyed most being caregiver is that being able to handle the behavior your patient is giving to you and yet you find your self it is very interesting and you still love your patient. It's like loving them with out asking for return to love you back 4. Personal achievement I am proud of is that I was able to stay calm in times of emergency when my patient oxygen sat went down to 52%, when shes having difficulty in breathing, she became cyanotic or become blue and I was doing a back percussion to her, her breathing went back to normal, (Ps. She had most form so I couldn't able to do CPr- that's why back percussion was applied)
