Dementia Caregivers in Buchanan County - 9 caregivers found

I'm a 28 year old mother and I've been a CNA since 2016. And ever since I was 15 I have loved healthcare and biology. My grandpa was diagnosed with dementia and passed away. I, myself, have faced quite a few medical battles young and have since been dedicated to helping other people. I'm very patient and observant when it comes to my patients and therefore I'm very compassionate about their physical and mental wellbeing. It's not just a job to me. I love helping, always have, and I couldn't think of a better way to use my passion and skill than to help people stay in their home despite needing a little extra care.

I have over eight years' experience in the care industry. I began as a CNA working in nursing homes for four years before moving on to being a home counselor helping integrate the mentally challenged into society. After retiring from the workforce in 2010, I returned to work in home care for senior citizens. I have gained a wide variety of skill and maintain a professional connection with all my clients. I currently work with two home-care agency's and constantly educate myself to hone my skills. My compassion for senior citizens began while in middle school in the small town of Center Point Iowa. We have an eight apartment senior building close to the school. Every day, I would stop by, pick up the newspaper in front of the door and knock. Every time I was invited in to socialize. Listening to live history those folks lived through will always be in my fondest memories. I love taking care of those who paved the way for our society. Every client I meet gets professional care with a friendly, family atmosphere.

For the last 10 years, I have spent much of my time being a steward of care. It began with helping to educate and feed young minds, both physically and mentally, continued with taking care of my elderly grandparents in the last years of the lives, moved on to helping to feed and nourish dementia patients, and still goes on today in being a father, and assisting elderly friends and neighbors. I have worked with dementia patients in their 90s, and children as young as three. I have experience setting up/operating peritoneal dialysis machines, managing medications, managing diabetes, feeding, cooking, transporting, and conversing. Patience is the most basic kindness one person can extend to another, and my ability to show patience and kindness, even in the most trying of situations, makes me proud. I look forward to serving your loved one!
