11 caregivers with Blood Disorders experience found near Hickory
A blood disorder is a condition that affects the red blood cells that carry oxygen, the white blood cells that fight infection, or platelet cells that are responsible for clotting. It also includes cancers of the blood, such as myeloma, lymphoma, or leukemia. Common symptoms include frequent weakness and fatigue from iron deficiency, persistent fevers and infections, abnormal bleeding and bruising, and shortness of breath. Most conditions can be managed with iron supplements, blood transfusion, or even clotting factor replacement therapy. Caregivers assist with non-contact physical activities and meal preparations adhering to dietary restrictions of individuals taking coagulant or anticoagulant medications.
I became a care giver when my father had lung cancer, I lived with him and was his soul caregiver. I also cared for my mother in law that had alzheimer's for eight years. My brother was born with cp and had 21 surgeries over his childhood. We all played apart in his recovery he now has a job at AAA! I have worked at customer Service at Kohl's department store for eight years and enjoy working with the public meeting new people and helping people! I only work one day a week for health benefits. My heart is helping people feel better. Currently working at home instead but looking for one or two clients in my area Taylorsville. back ground check is available upon request
What makes me a great caregiver would have to be my patience, compassion, consideration, empathy, attention to detail and my love for others. I treat others with the same respect that I would want.
My mother was diagnosed with a savvier disorder for sleep apnea when I was only 4. 3 yrs later she was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, nerve damage then formed from diabetes as well as sugar issues. 5 months later she was then diagnosed with lupus. She also had a fluid disorder, arthritis, obesity, blood disorder (polycythemia vera), She was never diagnosed but we believed she had formed dementia 1 yr before her death. I took on the responsibility of taking care of her at 17. When I was 18 she had to undergo a thrombectomy (surgery to remove blood clots). She had 1 1/2 gallons removed. When she came home I was her caretaker/caregiver for her surgery recovery. I took her to and from her appointments, helped her bath, fixed her meals, administered her medications and kept up with her medications and ran her errands. I would have to say this as well as the job I worked as a health aid has attracted me to be a great caregiver. I have also dealt with and still deal with epilepsy, My sister and my aunt have grandma seizures, my cousin has pseudoseizures ( not epileptic they are emotion stress induced).
What I most enjoy is the one on one bond that you gain from the resident you are caring for. This type of job gives someone a nice sense of respect, It helps one gain more knowledge and helps family's in need of help to get that help. It takes a lot for someone to leave there loved one with a stranger, I gain a sense of respect and honesty to be trusted with this individual.
A personal achievement that I am proud of would have to be taking care of my mom as well as being there for my sister, aunt, and cousin. There is a lot of health problems in my family and I am proud that I am the one that is able to help them.
I have been a CNA in Georgia for over 17 years and I have worked in Nursing home, Rehab clinics, In home care, and hospitals.
I'm the best of the best when it come to being a caregiver. I have many references and a clean work record. I am committed to making a positive approach in all aspects in my career and I take pride in my work.
I started off returning to college for my CNA certification because my grandfather was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's disease. Around the same time my stepfather had a stroke so I was determined to be able to take care of them. Since completing my CNA certification course I have worked in facilities as well as doing home health care. I enjoy my job most because I am able to help others with daily living activities and I am able to bring joy to their lives. I am very easy to get along with. I like to think of myself as kind and I put my heart into my job. I have four years of medical school as well as my CNA certification. I just finished college for my medical assistant associates degree.

Hello, my name is Amparo. I am originally from Huntington Beach California and recently moved here to Newton NC . I'm a very easy going person, patient and compassionate.

I have over 22 years of experience During that time I've worked with elderly as well as mentally challenged. I've worked one on one as well as in a live in setting for a 6 bed facility.

What I like about being a caregiver is the pleasure of giving compassionate care to someone in need I'm blessed to have that character its makes my day to know that I'm blessed with the love and compassion that comes along with being a caring cna.
I have been a caregiver most of my life and I love making a difference in peoples lives. I enjoy being able to interact and give companionship to ones who need it the most. There is nothing like a person who tells you the smile you start with at the beginning of the day just makes theirs. I am a single mother of a 9 and 6 year old and am getting my BA in social science. I love to travel and I enjoy time with my famliy.
What I think makes me a great caregiver is that I have a big heart. I don't like to see people in need and I always want to help someone. I have been doing home health almost my whole life. I would have to help a family member that had muscular dystrophy and another that had dementia. I have been doing this type of work professionally for a year. I have always wanted to help people in some way and I find that helping to keep people in their homes is the best way that I found that I could help. What I enjoy most is just being around the clients and hearing some of the stories that they will tell me and learning new things that I never knew. A personal achievement that I am proud of is having my son, he may drive me crazy sometimes but I love that little boy with all my heart.
I became a caregiver to take care of the sick and elderly. I like being a caregiver because I get to help others. Going back to school to become a nurse is my personal achievement. I am a hard worker, very self-motivated, dependable, reliable, caring and nurturing to the senior's needs.
