About Akira

Hello my name is A'Kira Burrell, I have many great personaliry traits that make me a great caregiver. I am loving, caring, and always eager to help those in need. That is what attracted me to being a caregiver. I get to use all of my best traits to do something that I love, which is to help and care for others. The main thing I enjoy about being a caregiver is knowing that clients are safe and cared for in my hands. I love to know that people trust me with their loved ones, which is the same thing I would want for my loved ones. A personal achievement I am proud of is pursuing a career that I am proud of and love at such a young age. I also have my own car and apartment. At my age, many don't have these things and that makes me proud.

I am patient, compassionate, accommodating, hardworking, and positive. I am also a good listener, and enjoy interacting with people. I greatly enjoy assisting seniors as this type of work provides me the opportunity to use my caregiving skills in serving the needs of the elderly. One of the most rewarding aspects of being a caregiver is knowing that I am making a difference in someone's life. In a previous caregiving job, my client showed improvement in mobility, appetite and mood after I began caring for her.

I have always had a strong relationship with my Grandmother, from as young as I can remember. I watched her as she aged over the years, and became unable to do certain things for herself. It was instinctual for me to just do them for her. It made her feel better knowing she had me there for her and it made me feel good knowing I could help her and make her life easier. I still feel that way today when I am able to help someone out with things they cannot do for themselves. I always think, if I wasn't around for my own Grandmother, I would have wanted a compassionate individual, like myself, to care for her. I take pride in my natural ability to care for the wellbeing of others with the utmost respect. I truly enjoy helping people. That is why I became a certified caregiver.
