Dementia Caregivers in Ansonia - 26 caregivers found

Caregiving has been my lifelong job and passion. I have spent 28 years raising a family of 6 children, 3 of which are still at home. Putting the needs of others first has always been a priority for me. In most recent years I have chosen to add caregiving to my life and continued with my career as a business owner and professor's assistant. I have chosen to do this because I feel I can always give just a bit more. My degrees in Psychology and Human Services have given me a solid understanding of human behavior and just how fragile we can be in times of need. Giving back to my community in the form of caregiving gives me the opportunity to make a difference in a person and family's life. I believe I am patient, caring, compassionate, trustworthy and I aspire to make a difference. I have also used those attributes in the positions I have held. As a professor's assistant I have the opportunity to be a support person for students professionally and emotionally. Cheering them on as they strive to achieve their goals in college. I love this! Each semester I am given the opportunity to make that difference. Providing care for those that need help so they may stay in their homes and make daily life easier is what I can do to give back. Using my skills and understanding to positively impact someone's life is something I am proud of. I was given the opportunity to care for a Dementia/Alzheimer's client for 5 years. I truly embraced each step of her illness journey providing her with understanding, care, and companionship, helping her to maintain her dignity and live her best life during those final years. On fun note, I am also a dog lover! My hobbies are spending time with my family, hiking, gardening and reading.

I've been a caregiver for over 10 years

I have been an STNA/caregiver for 19 years! I have cared for patients in nursing facilities, hospitals, and their homes. I lead with love and enjoy serving seniors in any way that they may need.

Committed to Obtaining and developing a career in nursing with a well-established and growth Oriented company. I desire a challenging opportunity that will utilize my experience and Background.

I am an energetic and positive caregiver! My first patient was my grandmother who was a patient of cancer for 20 years. Since then, I wanted to be able to help loved ones be comfortable in their own home where they can enjoy alot of the same things they always have. I have a passion to care for those in need. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the lessons learned by your patients and hearing the stories that make up their past!

I'm a great caregiver because I'm compassionate. I take the time to listen, have good one on one bedside manners. When I decided to become a caregiver is when I would see my aunt disrespect my granny, and I would say I will never do that. So I wanted to make a difference in people lives. Be there for them when they didn't have anyone to lean on, cry on, or just have a nice good conversation.

Experience caregiver.

I'm a very honest and outgoing person! I love to care for people, I am currently going to school to become a medical assistant. I've grown up wanting to be a nurse all my life, I enjoy helping others. I put all my hard worth and faith into my patients! I care about their well being and give each and everyone my sympathy. I don't have much experience as an Stna or CNA but I am certified both and have worked in a nursing home as a CNA. I've worked very hard to be where I am, and I wouldn't trade it for the world!

Hello! My name is Summer and I am laid back in personality, but very attentive and helpful. I am careful to mold to the patient and familys' dynamics and needs. I love getting to know the people I care for. My greatest accomplishment is taking an interest in the music my previous client played professionally for 30 years, but had lost his ability to play years ago due to illness. Because I listened to his music with him and was willing to reminisce with him, he felt like he'd gained a piece of that partof his life back and began sharing his love of music with his children again before he passed. I enjoy every minute spent with a patient, I love caring for them. I love cooking, cleaning, being their arms and legs, and helping them feel as normal as possible. I am constantly looking for ways to help, to go above and beyond.

I love helping people. I use to take care of my daddy before he passed from cancer.
