About Sophia

I became a caregiver because I love to help others. What I like most about being a caregiver is helping elderly people and making them feel safe and secure. A personal achievement I am proud of is when I was working for a stroke patient. The left side of her body was almost completely dead after her stroke and I worked with her and gained most of her strength back on her left side. Something about me, I've been a caregiver for over 10 years now and still love what I do. I'm responsible, very organized and love to help other.

    I am a responsible, reliable and compassionate caregiver with years of experience in geriatric care within private homes and assisted living communities. I am recognized for my ability to provide emotional and physical support to clients. I have exceptional communication abilities as well as cultural sensitivity to deal with a diverse range of people. The reward of being a caregiver is priceless and my passion of caring for others comes from experience. One of my fondest memories is being in the kitchen with my Aunt, we love to cook together. It was everything I looked forward to after a long day at school or work. Then her symptoms of arthritis worsened and she was no longer able to do what she loved on her own. Helping my Aunt and others like her that are going through their process is the reason I am a caregiver today. It allows me to care for others in the same way I would want my family members to be treated.

    I have 15 years of experience working in a hospital setting. I worked as a Registered Nurse in the Philippines for 8 years and in Singapore for 7 years. In the Philippines, I was assigned in a multi-discipline ward. It consists of med-surg, ob-gyne, pediatrics, and even geriatric patients. I also handled chemo drugs for AML and ALL pedia patients. In Singapore, I was in hand surgery and Orthopaedic department for 11 months and was transferred to Isolation Ward (Infectious Diseases) for the rest of 7 years. Currently, I am working as an RN in one of the Skilled Nursing Facility in San Francisco, Ca.
