Ugochukwu E.

I hold a strong desire in assisting others with their life experiences, self- growth and personal well- being. This trait is visible throughout my resume as I have worked in education, childcare, and caring for adults. Working with the elderly population allows me the opportunity to absorb the knowledge that has been gained over the years while also enjoying some of their life stories and assisting them in their daily living. I hold CNA licenses in MD, VA, and TN. along with recently applying for a DC license and I am CPR-First Aid Certified. I am a compassionate respectable, friendly person that will provide privacy, companionship and safety to all persons under my care. I currently work in an Assisted Living Facility in Fairfax, VA. and I have worked in private homes as well.

I am a warm and friendly person. I enjoy working with people who need care and support - men, women, youth, children, and seniors alike. I took care of my late father who had high blood pressure, diabetes, and Alzheimer's, showering him with love, care, and support until he died. I was glad I gave all of the care, support, and encouragement that I could to my dad. I also took care of my late aunt. When she was dying those with her said that she was calling my name, blessing me for taking care of her. Again, I was glad that I cared and supported her in the end of her life. When I came to the USA, I lived in a house with an elderly couple. The wife had Alzheimer's and diabetes, and I took care of her while living in their house. To show appreciation the couple's daughter helped me get my first job in caregiving at her company as a Direct Support Professional. I worked in the field of direct care at Chrysallis Incorporated for 3 years. I supported the people that I cared for so that they could live fulfilled lives. I am very committed to caregiving - I have worked for three US companies within five years, simply caring for people. I try to do this job with all of my heart, committing myself to rendering the best service with love, respect, and dignity. I believe that working with CareLinx will give me even more opportunities to reach out and make more people happy despite their challenges.
