About Beryl

In 2009 my grandmother was diagnosed with dementia. In 2010 she had a stroke, an because of the disorder,she had loss of memory and other mental abilities severe enough to interfere with her daily life. I moved back to Ohio and moved in with her. When I moved in she didn't have the ability to do anything on her own. What I love about caregiving is just really being able to help a person in need. In 2014 I in-rolled at Bryman College for medical assisting and the school closed down 140 hrs into 200 hrs left at my externship site. I was determined to get into the health care field, so I enrolled into a new school and completed the program again. I've been doing in-home care for awhile and I love it. It took me awhile to find out what I wanted to do with my life, but after what me and my family went through with my grandmother, I find great fulfillment in my career choice in the health care field.

    I am a caregiver because I very much enjoy providing care for others, I have found this to be my lifelong work. I have work in the field of human services for over 15 years; working in home, school program, and community settings. I have worked with children, adults with developmental disabilities, and the elderly. I have training, medication, administration, dementia care, dysphasia issues, transfer training, and also being compassionate and supportive, during emotional and behavioral challenges. I have a keen understanding of type of medication and compassion is needed in regards to a family as a whole, being an outside person, who is trusted to come in and support a cherished loved one. A personal achievement of mine is being selected to attain specialized training in order to be able to instruct my colleagues on how to compassionately support those coping with aging challenges. A little something about me, I spent many years caring for my mother, who was a triple amutee, it was truly a gift to learn to care for and be there for her to count on me so she did not have to feel alone, and she was able to feel safe in getting her needs met. It was our best time together, and I will never forget it. I learned so much from her. I am someone who treats everyone with dignity, care and respect; We are all her to grow and learn from one another. Thank you for your time and consideration.
