I am a good listener and will double check to make sure that what is asked of me to do is correct.My past and present clients are and have given me great recommendations for my caring attitude. As a small girl, I always wanted to help the elderly and anyone less fortunate than me.I was raised by 2 very loving, church going parents. The most important thing I love about being a caregiver is the gratification of knowing that I am appreciated in my responsibilities. A personal achievement that I am very proud of is doing the smallest things to get that gratitude.

Hello my name is MaryLynn and I am a compassionate caregiver with extensive experience caring for individuals who need special care. I have extra energy to work with my clients because I want them to feel comfortable, happy and enjoy their surroundings. I am a very patient, dedicated and dependable care giver and connect well with others. My priorities are to ensure safe, clean environment and to provide personal care. I want to spread my warm caring service to you.

I am a mother of 4 (lord do they keep me busy) I love being a caregiver. I've been a CNA for 10 years now and I admire elderly people. I realized that this was my career choice once I sat and held many elderly hands and became their family. The bonds are sometimes short lived but they are worth it. I'm a talker and I love laughing. I can't go a day without making someone else smile, no matter how I'm feeling. I am the live definition of a people person.!

I am a caring and compassionate person. I enjoy working with family's and individual care. I have been doing this since I was younger in homes, and recently got my CNAs and am currently employed in a skilled nursing facility. I love my job and my individuals. I love getting to know the individuals and forming relationships with them. I got into home care because I wanted to help, I wanted to be there for people who needed it. I've stayed in health care because leaving my mark on people is my passion. I care deeply about my individuals I take care of,

I love to listen and engage in conversation, learning new things is my favorite thing to do! My mom always worked in healthcare, I knew I wanted to follow her foot steps. It's very rewarding to not only myself but those I care for! The bond with people you make, someone caring for you as you do them. A personal achievement I am proud of is just being in this line of work!

I am a gentle and quiet person, attentive listener, tender hearted, compassionate and deeply caring, professional woman. I assist and provide care for individuals who have been diagnosed with dementia, alhzlmers, bed bound, limited mobility, and disabilities of various kinds. Each and every person I provide care for, I actually care about them and their wellbeing. I have years of experience of attend to people's needs and providing care for them as a former chaplain intern and resident at the University of Kentucky, The United Methodist Children's Home and my local community. My role as a chaplain was mainly to offer emotional support and spiritual care for patients, families, doctors and nurses at a rapid pace. A desire in me began to grow where I wanted to have more time to get to know the clients more and spend more time with them. I enjoy the role of a care giver because I am able to take time to learn about people's needs and attend to them. My heart is filled with joy as a caregiver because I have the time and space to listen to each individual's story, learn about their physical and mental health and assist them with their needs. My vision for being a caregiver is to provide care for each person in such a way that they feel honoured, accepted, noticed, valuable and encouraged in their independence. I am most proud of myself for providing care for infants, the elderly, to those on the day they took their last breath, those without homes or with homes, citizens of the United States and internationals, people of differing faiths or no faith, those with minor health concerns to those in critical conditions, those who struggle with mental health diagnoses to those who do not and a variety of other categories within the past 5 years of my life. I don't take any of those opportunities lightly and am excited about the opportunity learn new care plans and provide care that meets each and every clients need(s).

I've been doing this for 30 years and that's a long time in this field. Iam also a certified nurses aide. This is my true calling . The elderly paved the way for me and I have the upmost respect for them
