About Mayra

About me as a Caregiver/HomeHealth Aide: I have great empathy and compassion for those around me. I have always felt a desire to help others which is why I have decided upon a career in Nursing. I care about the people I assist and do what I can to help them. I spent little time with my elders and so in a way I treat my clients as if they were my elders, with respect to their dignity and warmth. I am patient and understanding. I have a kind and friendly personality. I am a very reliable person and can be counted on to be there unless there is an emergency. I have excellent communication skills. I am a very trustworthy person and I respect the persons privacy and understand the responsibility of being trusted into their home. I am also a flexible person as far as scheduling as I have to be due to my full time school schedule. I understand care needs may change and unexpected events can happen I like to be prepared to go with the flow, being flexible, so that I can continue to provide good home care so that the clients needs are being met. About me on a personal level: I love to read!!! I thoroughly enjoy animating my readings to create a vivid picture in the listeners mind. I enjoy board games and card games. I crochet from time to time. I love to cook and bake. I love classic movies from the golden age of Hollywood. I enjoy great conversations and am a great listener.
