COPD Caregivers in Preston - 3 caregivers found

Empathy and compassion. Working with people in a home care setting, it is essential that a caregiver feel the desire to want to help. By showing both empathy and compassion caregivers will let the person they are caring for know that they care about the person and want to do what they can to help them. I have the patience to work with someone who needs home care it is important to me that the patient and I have an understanding. It helps to sometimes put yourself in the other person's shoes and see what it might be like to ask people for help. I'm very Reliable A great caregiver is someone that can be counted on to be there. If the caregiver says he or she is going to be there to provide home care every Thursday morning, then the caregiver shows up, unless there is an emergency. Those needing home care services need a reliable and dependable caregiver. Trustworthy. Most people who need home care services are in a vulnerable position. They are inviting someone into their home to be near their valuables. A good caregiver is someone who is trustworthy in this regard, as well as in being trusted to keep the client's information confidential. Very flexible As with most things in life, home care needs may change and unexpected events can happen. A good caregiver will be prepared to go with the flow, being flexible, so that they continue to provide good home care, even if a rigid schedule isn't being followed. Good home caregivers are those who naturally have an urge to help others. Often times they are people who have always placed a priority on helping other people. They want to make the world a better place and they do it with one home care patient at a time. Becoming a good home caregiver isn't something that will necessary happen immediately, but if the basic qualities are there, those people can develop their skills over time to become great!

I have been a CNA or caregiver for 13 years..I wanted to become a care giver because my mom was one and when I was little I used to be around clients of hers..that were so sweet and kind and that looked up to her...and it was sad they had no one to depend on..so I wanted to be that way for someone..be there for them when they have no one else to depend on..everybody needs someone..so I wanted to be that someone..I like helping people do things that they can't normally do or be that ear or shoulder when they need me

I'm a very compassionate individual. I absolutely love my job and am so grateful to be able to say that! All of my clients are like family to me. I expect the best for them and take the initiative to do the best I can in helping them.
