What makes me a great caregiver, is the love and passion I have to be one to care for another.

I was born in a caregiver role as a child. I took care of my siblings when I was much younger. When I was in middle school my grandmother had an operation on her back and I took care of her until she was able to take care of herself. I was in school and I wanted to take care of the elderly. So I took a C.N.A. course and I worked at the School of Nursing. I worked with an elderly woman privately and I enjoyed watching movies with her. She loved Forrest Gump. I like the assignment that I have. I got her walking when they said she couldn't walk, I got her up from being bed bound twice. I had to help her. First we crawled, then she stood up, balance was our next step, and then a few steps here, and then full walking transfers! They said she is a walking miracle. I am proud of myself that I was able to follow doctors orders, nurse orders, P.T. and O.T. exercises.

I specialize in many walks of life. I have worked in rehab as well as long term. I am covid vaccinated with booster and cpr certified.

I have worked in health care most of my life. I took care of my mom and grandparents. I was trained at UofM wound care clinic for my mom. I also went to school for medical assistant. I experience taking care of wounds, autistic, dementia,Alzheimer's, people with hearing and vision and who are bed bound. Ive worked with people on hospice. I love helping others and taking care of them and helping them living there best life. I love listening to the stores people tell me. Especially the elderly the stories they tell sometimes have great lessons behind them. I still talk to some of my cleints i took care of they message me or if i see them out at the store they come up and give me hugs and tell me how much they love and miss me which makes me feel good and that i could be a positive person in their lives. I have had cleints that had noone else and who i made a differnece in their lives when they thought no one cared about them. One of my personal achievements is i dropped out of high school to take care of my mom so after she passed i was in my 20s i went back to school got my GED and went to college.

Hello, my name is Labrina. I have been taking care of others as a direct support professional for 6 years. I have worked with many clients with varying mental and physical disabilities. I enjoy the work I do and feel grateful that I can make someone else's life a little easier, or their day a little brighter! I initially started my role as a caregiver while working with children and adults with autism and other mental or behavioral disabilities. I have since then moved to working in an adult foster care home with total care clients. It requires patients, and a gentle heart to be a caregiver. I am proud to serve as a caregiver.

The most important thing that makes me a great caregiver is that I love what I do. I became a caregiver because my mother and grandmother needed care. So I ask myself," How would I want someone to care for them if I weren't around to do it? Or how would I want to be taken care of myself?" Being of service to others who need compassionate care, and knowing that I made a difference in the quality of someone else's life by being there is what I enjoy most about being a caregiver. One of my personal achievements is with my knowledge and education, I was able to train all of my fiance's CENA's and give them more knowledge than what they came with. In order to care for him properly, so that I can go back to work outside of home.

I like people and have compassion and respect for their feeling. I have a strong desire to comfort and care for others and improve their quality of life. My greatest achievement was successfully raising two children who are now generous, kind adults who are an asset to the community.

Friendly energetic and outgoing! Love putting a smile on a residents face. I've always loved helping people. I enjoy seeing my clients smile and happy with the care that I provide. Personal achievement would be staying strong through the hard times of this line of work. Not giving up and keeping a smile on my face.

Hi, My name is Jamie. I have been in the medical field since 2012. I am a certified phlebotomist, EKG technician, patient care technician, and medical assistant. I have always loved to care for others. My favorite part of being a caregiver is developing a relationship with those I care for and learning their life experiences. You can learn so much knowledge from others with a lot of life experience and hear some amazing stories. It's truly a rewarding thing to be able to take care of others!
