My name is Stephanie. I became a caregiver because I love to help people who cannot help themselves. I like being a caregiver because I like to see that I am making a difference in someones life in a positive way. A personal achievement that I am proud of is that I am enrolled in school again studying Medical Billing and Coding. I have over a year of experience doing home health care and I am certified to work with Allied Health Care Services and I am also part of the Home Health Care Union in CT. I have experience using a hoyer lift for transfers, bathing/bed bathing, nail and hair care, dressing/undressing, toileting/bladder routine, ex. male external catheters and urinary drainage bags, using adult diapers etc. Also I have experience in cleaning and maintaining a clean safe environment for client ex. vacuuming, sweeping, mopping, dusting, laundry, dishes etc. I also have my own vehicle so I can run errands or go shopping if needed.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
