Cardiovascular Disorders Caregivers in Kendall County - 43 caregivers found

I am a trustworthy and dedicated certified nurses assistant looking for work as a caregiver. I am a nurturer by nature, and enjoy being able to care for people that need my help. I have ample experience caring for elderly patients with dementia and stroke, as well as in a nursing home, and have cared for a wide variety of needs. I work at my best when I feel like I am part of a team or family. And I like to ingagage In patient's daily life needs above and beyond.

Hi! My name is Rosa, I am an introvert but nonetheless a hard worker, enjoy working with the elderly and disabled community. I am constantly asking my patients how I can accommodate them. If they ask me to go an inch I will go a mile. I enjoy listening to their stories, playing games & running personal errands for them. I believe in having a good work ethic and keeping my patients happy. I will always do my best.

I was 15 years old and just started my freshman year of high school when I was placed in a class called Intergenerational Studies. For 2 hours each day I was taken to the nursing home called Golden Years there in Elgin, Tx. I started off just getting residents from their rooms to come and do activities with me. But it wasn't long and I was working side by side with CNAs, RNs, and at one point the DON had me shadow her for 2 weeks. I just got really interested and a few years after graduation and having my son, I pursued a CNA certification and was assigned the hospice hall and the "lockdown unit" which was occupied by the more violent patients and those with conditions such as Alzheimer's and/or parkinson's, as well as those with behavioral health conditions. I honestly just fell in love with everything about caring for the elderly. Even the hard and very emotional side of the care I provide is something I wouldn't want to stop doing. I would love to get my CNA back but just haven't attempted to do so since my husband passed in 2011. Since my high school days I have worked with all ages of people, from a 2 year old little princess to a 98 year old gentleman I referred to as Fred Astaire due to them looking like twins. He loved it and would smile so big when I walked in every day; and every day he would say "Good morning Ms. Judy (Garland). You feel like dancing the day away?" It's things like that for which I love my work. Please feel free to ask anything, I would love to tell everything now but there is just so much I've been blessed to have experienced with so many different people I'd never be done.

I am a passionate person who loves to help the elderly , I am very reliable and honest

I am very patient, understanding and compassionate. I have well over 25 years of experience in providing care to a wide range of patients/clients. Primarily I've worked with Alzheimer's/dementia patients, I enjoy being able to help and provide care for those who are no longer able to fully care for themselves.

I am a very caring and happy person who loves to help people. I became a caregiver because my mother was ill and I took care of her till she went home to our heavenly father. I knew we needed to be sure she had the best care and that she wasn't alone. I take care of them like they are family. Seeing them thrive and happy is what I enjoy the most. Personal achievement is when you're their for them to tend to their own special needs. You have a bond with them and remember conversations when they wished they would recover and be independent again and no longer need us to care for them. This gives me joy to see them happy.

I offer compassionate care to my client and I'm proud to say I have great love for humanity

When I first became a caregiver, I knew it was the job for me- it was love for the job at first experience. Years later, what keeps me coming back is that this is what I excel in. I am a great caregiver because I am empathetic but I'm also strong. I know how to hold space for people, which is allowing them to have their feelings and be validated in a way that often helps diffuse and solve potentially problematic situations. I could work in many fields, and I have, but as a caregiver, I know how to make a real difference. I know how to listen, I know how to help, I know how to handle emergencies. Personally, I am most proud of being a quick learner-it's helped me in the most meaningful ways.

I am incredibly compassionate about others. I believe I make even the worst situations at the time have some kind of light and laughter. Empathetic, outgoing and personable to say the least. You'll love being around me and I will love being around you or your loved one. I want to make your situation as light and nonjudgmental as possible. Even if I have to remind you over and over who I am... or where you are.. my patience is impeccable.

I am a licensed vocational nurse with 13 yrs experience in all areas of healthcare. I enjoy helping people and making a positive difference in people's lives. It is very rewarding.
