Hello my name is Lourdes, I'm 33 years old. I am a Filipino. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant, Home Health Aid, and currently working now as dialysis technician. I had experience in The Californian, Valle Verde skilled facilities and Oakmont Oxnard, having this opportunity to worked with them had made me aware of important things I need to know about caregiving skills. I learned lots of proper ways of giving care to a resident according to their care plan. For me being a CNA/HHA is not only giving care, insuring safety and maintaining their dignity but also being there for them when they need a companionship. I have more patience of dealing dementia. I learned how to handle client base of what care they should need. I am respectful. I always put myself in my resident's situation because I believe nobody wants to be treated badly. I make sure to give my best service to my client. With my own experience the best reward when helping someone is when they appreciate and smile at me.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
