COPD Caregivers in Walnut Springs - 21 caregivers found

Hello,I've been in the home health business for 25yrs. I'm comfortable and familiar with every aspect of care giving . I've never met a stranger a day in my life,I can get along with anyone. I'm a quick study and welcome learning something new everyday.

I believe what makes me a good caregiver. Is I have alot of patience, hard working, caring and down to earth. I decided to become a caregiver because I love helping others in need. I treat my clients as if they were apart of my family, which is with care and respect. Making my client laugh is my main goal. Laughter is good for the heart. It warmed my heart when a few clients I use to work with told me that they loved me for taking such good care of them. That reassured me that I achieved my goal taking care of them the best I can.

I am a medical student. I'm working on getting my RN as well as my bachelors in healthcare management

I am a mother of 2 toddlers and I feel that the elderly need just as much help, love, and care as a toddler. I can dress, change, cook, clean, bathe. I know how to tell whether the water in bathtub is too hot or too cold for someone.(check with either wrist or elbow) I know how to give insulin to diabetic patients.(My grandmother was insulin dependent and she taught me to shake up insulin, draw it up in the syringe, and to give the shot in the belly, or back underside of the arm.) I know how to deal with patients who have incontinence.(I have incontinence due to an overactive bladder, my mom had incontinence, my grandmother had incontinence.) I know how to deal with cancer patients. (My mother had breast cancer, and died of uterine cancer and was on hospice. My grandmother had breast cancer, colon cancer that metastasized to the lungs and died of brain cancer) My grandmother had four different types of cancer throughout her life, had myasthenia gravis(a form of muscular dystrophy), glaucoma, high blood pressure, manic depression, OCD, anxiety, diabetes(insulin dependent), and was a nurse. My mother was a medical assistant and medical administrative assistant, my aunt is a nurse, and when I was a teenager my mother still had all of her medical terminology dictionaries which I studied because I want to be an ultrasound technician and massage therapist. I want this job to get some healthcare jobs under my belt before going into what I want to be because it will look better on me having awesome work ethics which everyone knows work ethics begins within the home. I am very compassionate, kind hearted, an empath, have sympathy for everything and everyone around me, have a very big heart, and want to give back to those who deserve it which I think the people who deserve it the most is our veterans and the elderly.

A little about me... I've been a certified nurses aide for over 20 years. I've worked in nursing homes, private sitting and I've worked in Hospice for the past 10 years. I love what I do. Since i started working as a CNA, I've gone to school to do other things, but I keep coming back as a CNA, so I feel this is my passion. My children are grown and I have 3 amazing and beautiful grand children, and another on the way. That's a little about me....

Hi! First off, I admire the families that choose to hire someone to help their loved ones and not take the option of putting them in a nursing home. I have never been more content or more pleased then having a job as a caregiver. You're able to bring life back into the home, become apart of the family and commit yourself whole heartedly. I prefer to wear scrubs on the job. My job duties for the last 6 years as a caregiver w/ my most recent patient/s are as follows. . Cooking, cleaning, running errands such as groc shopping, driving them, pill mgmt and doctor appointments, I'm knowledgeable in Alz/ Dementia as well. As for the ladies I do gardening, decorating, manicure and pedicures as well as hair. I'm very organized and keep everyone on schedule. I'm a hard worker. I'm cpr/ first aid licensed and am also certified nursing assistant,I will take care of their bandages or any other wounds. I will go above and beyond for you and your family as if it's my own and I'm very good at keeping them company I have learned so much from bonding w/ the elderly. I love what I do. I won't let you down. I have commendable references also! Traveling is not an issue as long as it fits my schedule and it is the hourly wage is feasible. Allow me to help you and I can make things much easier on your loved one and their stay at home.

I am a very compassionate, warm hearted person ,easy to get along with. I love caring for people in need.

I am caring, empathetic, and quick to learn. I have been around all ages and have seen & experienced many different disabilities or health conditions. I tend to be a fixer. I know majority of the patients are probably going to be terminal but personally, I believe everyone in life is considered terminal. I look at things as if we aren't going to get out alive, so let's 1. Meet the necessary needs for each patient. 2. Let them enjoy the life they have left here with the people they love & by doing the things they love. I think for the most part when you have a heart that's keen to the caregiving industry, the most enjoyable thing is getting to go home with a fulfilling, "I did good for someone who truthfully needed it" feeling. But most of all, there's no story like an old story. I love to listen to them, to take in as much as I can but making sure I still fulfill my professional expectations while doing so. My heart is kind and ready to help or do everything in my power to keep these patients happy. Being that I am only 24, I don't have a whole lot of personal achievements that I'm beyond ecstatic to share just yet. But I think in this moment, answering this question, my most proud achievement so far is overcoming the life that I chose for myself. Overcoming the toxic family, overcoming my own personal self doubts or self worth. To feel like enough is enough some days & to know I am worthy of this life, to know God has put me here to do his work so He can sit back and watch is an overwhelming, gracious humbleness. I hope you give me the opportunity to love your family as of they are my own. I look forward to meeting you!

I have an out going personality. I have been doing this kind of work since high school. My compassion is helping and caring for people. You have to have it your heart to do this kind of work.
