About Almekia

My name is Almekia. I am kind, patient, helpful, dependable and hardworking. I decided to go into the care field after taking care of my grandfather who had dementia up until he went into his after life. I enjoy caregiving because it feels great making someone smile and doing things to make their day better no matter how big or small. I take pride in my attention to detail. I also enjoy keeping busy throughout my day. It makes me proud knowing that I am making an impact on peoples daily lives. A great achievement for me is being considered for a lead position for my previous employer.

I have 20+ years of experience in the healthcare industry specifically in the role of caregiver. I've always had a love of taking care of people. My earliest memories Consisted of playing hospital with my Barbie dolls and pretending to take care of them as if I were in a real hospital setting! I would bathe them, dress them, administer injections etc. That love stayed with me throughout my childhood to present day. Although I've gone to school and acquired all of the proper credentials needed to work in hospitals etc., I missed that special feeling you get via the relationships and bonds that developed when giving one on one care to a client which I felt was lacking in the hospital setting. I am at my happiest when I am able to bring a smile to my clients face through the services that I provide for them personally and I really enjoy providing companionship as well. When my dad fell ill, I gave up everything to focus on taking care of him personally. In addition to the clinical portion of caring for him we watched TV together, shared deep conversations and stories of his childhood and mine, I prepared his favorite meals etc. And when it was my dad's time, I walked away from it with life long memories that I have passed along to my children who I hope will pass it on to their children and so on!
