About Blanca

My father was a caregiver for 20 yrs... taking care of people with disabilities....he always had a lot of patience for kids and elderly.... I grew up watching him helping others.... I was younger like 23 yrs older when started to work as a facility and was taking care of 12 ladies...they all had different health problems... paralyze half of the body.... Alzaimer... Parkinson's disease... dementia... respiratory problems with oxygen all day... depression and one with very bad skin problems....woke up @ 4 a.m to get myself ready and then check the ladies...give them a shower while my companion lady will prepare breakfast we both have them medication accordingly I never thought I would have the patience to do it but I did and couldn't help it... I got attached to all of them...it requires different type of care for each individual...but it was like having a lot of grandmas by my side...

1. I became a caregiver through the inspiration of my late mother. She was in a vegetative state for almost 2 yrs. due to massive stroke. Reinvented myself from working in the corporate world (banking) to moving in the healthcare field. It's a different experience where one found joy and accomplishment working with the elderly. My salary rate is negotiable depending on client's needs. 2. Being a caregiver is very personal to me.. My focus is always the well-being & safety of my client. 3. Being a caregiver entails a lot of patience, compassion and experience to be able to understand every client's specific needs. . I try to keep a balance of everything I do to maintain my physical and psychological well-being. 4. I consider myself as energetic, strong-willed and resourceful. In my former job I was the lead CNA supervising 3 caregivers working 12 hrs. shift 24/7 in our client's own home. My relationship with my client & the family I've worked with has been very pleasant. Blessed to work with families that trust my work ethics and the care I provide for their loved ones.
