About Frank

My desire to help needy people in the society is in-born. I get great satisfaction whenever I make a difference in someone's life as I ask myself "suppose it was me who was in this state of health"? ......The answer to this is my driving force as I take care of my patient/s.It is therefore for this reason I consider myself a true care provider, and one who is not necessarily driven by monetary considerations entirely since this is a job that requires compassion and a natural calling in order for one to succeed.I'm both a certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and a certified caregiver as well,all rolled into one, a combination that works very well for me as I discharge my core responsibilities. My experience in patients' - focused care spans over a period of five (5) years caring for all people in various age brackets and gender.These included geriatrics and dementia patients. I'm CPR and First Aid certified and knowledgeable in Dialysis and psychiatry.I'm currently working part time in Health care Rehab Hospital.My greatest achievement is when the family I'm working for is happy with the care I give to their relative and my boss is also satisfied with my work.

i am a knowledgeable,caring, gentle, focused, attentive and hardworking caregiver with a former medical background. I moved from a career as a Community Health Aid Program Village coordinator in Alaska (Physician Assistant) to serve as live-in caregiver for my newly widowed father in Mesa, Arizona where he had no immediate family. For over 10 years I was sole caregiver and household manager, seeing to his activities of daily living: bathing, dressing, toileting, cooking, housekeeping, urostomy management, renal dietary maintenance, organizing and dispensing daily pills, comfort, and companionship. I transported him to/from medical appointments including dialysis three times weekly, aided in medical decision making, and facilitated his understanding of the nature of his health. I was responsible for all aspects of transfer and mobility, as he was frail and a high fall risk. I was responsible for shopping and management of all home maintenance. I assisted and provided care for my father in the course of his physical therapy daily exercises, and in daily dressing changes during wound care. It was a great moment when we finally got his ulcer closed! At his end of life I researched and selected a hospice facility where he was able to pass with comfort and dignity. Through this experience I was able to discover and appreciate a side of patient care that I never had during my medical career and that I came to appreciate deeply.
