About Dina

When individuals think of becoming a caregiver, they think of taking care of an old person but it's more to it. It's being able to provide and care for someone's mom or dad. Someone's grandma or grandpa. Being able to satisfy the elderly's needs and make them feel safe at all times which is what attracted me to being a caregiver. I get satisfaction with seeing my patient comfortable and happy. My personal traits include being patient ,compassionate, and attentive. I enjoy being able to work with the elderly and put my communication and empathy skills to use. Getting to empathize and communicate with the elderly would be what I most definitely enjoy about being a caregiver. One of my biggest achievements i am proud of is being able to meet an elderly at my job named Mia. She was at a really bad place in her life where she was left with no family. I was able to be a helping shoulder where she had someone to listen to her and help her get through her problems. A week before she passed away she gave me the only possession that she owned which was her ring. She said I was the only person who ever sat with her and listened. I felt beyond satisfied knowing I was able to help someone and be a friend.

I believe what makes me a great caregiver is that I take care of all my patients as if they were my own family and make sure they are comfortable and most importantly I listen to their needs. I first became interested in health care when my mother was ill and needed care herself and realized that I had a real passion for helping others. I enjoy knowing that the family can be at ease knowing I'm there taking care of their loved ones. At Long Beach Memorial I was know as the "sitter whisper" because whenever they had a difficult patient they would alway assign me that patient and by the end of the day the patient would no longer require restraints or was completely compliant and friendly. They always ask what was my secret and I would say I simply listen to what their needs are.

I am punctual, very compassionate about what I do for people who have lost some independence from a life event. Compassion for the family involved to help lessen the burden. I like to tell stories that help the family get to know who I am and I love to hear stories from them as well. I have made Caregiving my Career and take it seriously to become highly regarded and recommended. I enjoy helping the patient and their families keep their lifestyles they have without interruption. I like seeing results so with that being said, I had achieved my series 6 & 63 license (which was a challenge for me) and was proud to present products that would get higher interest with low risk. I also did debt settlements and was happy to negotiate the lowest rate for my clients to settle. I work hard and with compassion whether your my customer, patient, friend or family member because I believe everyone needs help sometimes and I look past any obstacles getting it done.
