About Jose

What attracted me to be a caregiver or in general become a nurse was having the passion of helping people that who rely on others for their care and coming home at the end of the day glad that you are helping someone who really needs it. The reason i wanted to become a nurse was that throughout my whole life growing up as a child I was always helping my dad who was paralyzed from the waist down and has a catheter in his digestive system. Then having my Stepfather have a stroke and my mother and I having to take care of him and doing daily living task such as feed him, give him his medication, showering, bathing providing oral care and some exercise when he could. Some of my achievements i am proud of doing the Nursing Assistant program and appreciating more and more the help we give to the people that cant do it themselves.

Caregiving has always come second nature to me. I remember intuitively rubbing my grandmother's back and feet at a very young age, because of how much discomfort she was in and wanting to relieve her from all her aches and pains. I learned early on that simply engaging in conversation or encouraging my grandmother to go on walks, would alleviate much of her pain and boost her spirits almost instantaneously. As, I grew older I took on many volunteering and paid jobs to assist, care, and provide companionship to children with disabilities, the elderly, and terminally ill patients. What I enjoy most about caregiving is the ability to connect with the person and build a trustworthy friendship . My biggest personal achievement is, I have turned my passion for caregiving into my career goal which is to become a Medical Doctor.

I became a care giver because I like giving back to others. Being a care giver provides the opportunity to offer personalized care to each individual. A caregiver is able to educate and help people achieve physical and mental stability or wellness. I value being able to share in my client's accomplishments, no matter how small they might seem to others.
