I like to work with people who need the help, Be companionship with them let them know there not alone

Caregiver Experience: In the past 6 years I've been both a live-in and live-out caregiver/companion/personal assistant for multiple clients (I've assisted with daily living activities, companionship, meals, transportation and medications). a) I helped a friend take care of her mother for 3 months who was under Hospice. I monitored her insulin shots and medications. b) I was a part of three end-of-life transitions working with both hospice in addition to team of caregivers to provide 24/7 care. c) I assisted my sister in her recovery after a kidney transplant. d) I helped both my mother and a friend with their rehabilitation exercises and recoveries after having had strokes. - Special Interest/Skill: Listening and Coaching by asking questions - which often assists people in discovering their own answers and in having interesting and meaningful conversations (with all types of people). - Background: 20+ years as an application programmer. - Other: If you're aware of the Myers-Briggs type indicator (MBTI); I'm an INFP (Introvert - Intuition - Feeling - Perception). I've had a life long interest in communication and have participated in numerous workshops and classes in communication styles. With this knowledge - I've found that I'm able to to communicate effectively and respond appropriately with others.
