About Antoinette

I have 16 years in home caregiver service, 8 years in dementia caregiver, and I poses a "can-do" attitude with any profession. I effectively performed assistance in managing and maintaining a housekeeping, dressing, feeding, medical, transportation and incidental tasks. I am a hard-working individual that loves working and helping people. I am a reliable, quick learner, dedicated, trustworthy employee and I have great work ethic. I can work in a fast-paced environment stand for long periods of time and can work under any conditions. I would make a great team player because I can treat and show compassion for clients and show respect and dignity to their property or they're home. I can adapt and obtain a great deal of variety. I have a great number of valid certifications while working in a previous position at department Rehabilitation Service. Universal precautions, nutrition, and exercise for people with disabilities, working effectively to solve problems, access living personal assistant aid training and First aid/ CPR/AED. I want to establish fulfilling expectations within my career. My previous occupation has displayed me a path to proceed and accomplish what has been my long-term profession. I'm currently pursuing bachelor of science in healthcare management at Colorado technical university and I have 8 more months, to complete my degree. I would like to work for your company because, it can enhance my knowledge further and assist me within areas where growth is needed. This reason, I love being a caregiver is because i love working and providing assistance to others. Giving them back that love, peace and comfort is an amazing feeling and knowing that you're bringing happiness to their lives. I started this journey 18 years ago when my father first became ill. Being in the medical field wasn't something, I saw myself doing. But, since being in this professional, my experience has been awesome.
