My name is dawn. I am a 1-2 year experienced caregiver who loves helping others and providing companionship for everyday living. I have dealt with just about everything and about every kind of person in the book. I have always wanted to help others in some shape or form and I feel like caregiving gives the best independent help out there. The best thing about caregiving is helping.

Hi my name is Jordan Carter, I have been a caregiver for 4 years. My expertise range from full assistance to independent clients. I was attracted to caregiving by taking care of aunt when I was in high school. I then found a love that was truly meant for me. Helping others is second nature to me. I enjoy being a caregiver because I'm making an impact on a family that needs help. I think my all time greatest achievement was I have a client that does sign language (ASL). And she wanted me to sign with her at her church . I was super excited and nervous at the same time but I performed with her at the church. And when the performance was done everyone in the church stood up and clapped. I was grateful to be standing next her helping her and she was helping me.

I'm very attentive to my clients. I feel it's my calling to take care of those that can't take care of themselves. I have been doing this line of work for over 30 years. My clients have grown to love me and treat me like family as I have the same for them. I enjoy what I do and it shows in the care I provide. I love to laugh and make them smile and I have always been told that I have that gift..

Hi, my name is Caroline. I've always enjoyed caregiving whether it was for animals, children, elderly, and individuals with disabilities. I'm very empathetic and enjoy getting to know the people I care for. I think forming a bond and learning the characteristics of the person you're caring for is extremely important. I enjoy helping people reach goals that they may be unable to without my assistance-- it feels good to know you're serving others! A personal achievement I'm proud of is going to school and working at the same time.

Hello! My name is Jess,I have been working as a caregiver for 2 years. Here's a little insight about me and how I gained my experience. When I was a teen my mother in law was a nurse aide. I've looked up to her and admired how much people she helped everyday with her kind touch. Let's fast forward to when I graduated high school, I've always known I wanted to help people and with the work that I've watch my mother in law do,it inspired me to become a nurse aide. I had absolutely no clue where to start! Later I ended up getting my first gig helping a man with leukemia shortly after he passed I still stuck around and helped his wife with ADL Later I joined a care agency as a caregiver (FirstLightHomeCare) I've been to multiple peoples homes and facilities providing the best care I could possibly do. After being to one particular facility(abbotswood at irving park) I absolutely fell in love with the patients there, but due to rules and with the agency I was with I couldn't join them just yet. I ended up leaving my agency and joining a nursing home(Terrabella formerly known as Brighton Gardens) to gain more experience. There I earned my PCA and worked in the assisted living. Later down the line I realized I wanted to try something new, so I ended up moving to the memory care. There I tended to patients with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. After about a year of being with Brighton Gardens I decided to move on and further my education so I got my CNA with AIM medical training college. I got hired at my dream job and where I had fallen in love with my patients (abbotswood at irving park) there I became a Med Tech. I work closely with doctors and nurses and provide wound care as well. I have knowledge and understanding of certain medications. I also work closely with Hospice patients. I enjoy every second of the time I have with my patients and treat them with respect as if they were my own grandparent. I enjoy nurturing others and making sure they get the best possible care.

When i was a teen, my mom was sick and i had to care for her for 8 yrs. And just have this love for caring for people sick or well. Just to bring joy and a big smile to their faces.
