I am an excellent Caregiver, no challenge or task when it comes to my patients needs are refused (unless detrimental to the patient.) I never take chances when lifting or transfer patient with special special needs I'm a good listener. Respect is big thing when it comes to caring for the sick. "They are not children" and should treated and respected as adults I have a way of respectfully getting them to exercise, take the medication, bath, exedra. Because I know these patients that. An also suffer from depressed, I try really hard to keep their spirits up and remind them they are loved and cared for. Have the abilities to speak with doctors and articulate whats needed for the patient. Make appointments. Order and prepare medications. Check vitals, including blood sugar. Give insulin shots. The for knowledge of gastric tube feeding and maintenance of the tube. Full knowledge and experience using a Hoyer lift. I'm able to guide an electric wheelchair while patient is in it, good with getting him patients out the house, shopping walking. I'm an excellent and caring care giver. I am specially proud of working with quadriplegic patient that only giving 5 years. we shared 13 1/2 wonderful years together.
