Hi my name is Ashley Lara. I have 2 1/2 experiance as being a Caregiver/Provider. What attracted me to this profession is the calm pace of this job. I enjoy talking to others and getting to know them. And knowing I'm making a difference in others life's.

I have cared for many elderly, I enjoy taking great care of my residents/ clients, I am gentle, and work well under pressure, I listen and advise of what I am going to be doing so that they know exactly what is going on or may wanna assist with the task. I took care of my grandmother until her last days, that is what got me to enjoy this profession so much.

I'm reliable, including arriving for work on time and fulfilling all duties on time. I respect students, and patients privacy and dignity. I work with a positive demeanor and kind tone of voice. I'm very patient and considerate when working with a student or patient. I'm known to be very trustworthy with students, and patient care. I enjoy working with people, and animals. I like having a one-on-one interaction with adults. I've always enjoyed taking care of my elder family members, and co workers. I've always had an open heart to people that require some additional help. I like older adults and tend to connect with them very well. My favorite part about being a caregiver, and special needs driver is seeing the elders/children thrive and be happy. I love to see that my efforts and care can make a difference, and make a positive impact on a person's day and well being. One of the special achievements that I'm proud of is the way I can change someone's attitude or day. I have the ability to talk with people and make them feel comfortable and safe.

I started off by taking care of my grandmother at the age of 13. She and i grew a bond that i'm hoping to share with others. I have provided with transportion, medication reminders, meal prepping, house cleaning and companionship. I am a friendly individual and a caring person. I also have previous experience with caregiving.

I started care giving with my grandmother who was diagnosed with Alzheimer's/dementia. I found myself enjoying the time I spent with her and even after she passed I looked for a job in caring for the elderly. They enjoy ones company.

I am a loyal, patient, and honest person who enjoys helping others. I chose to be a caregiver because I understand the conditions and felt the need to help; I put other peoples needs before my own. My grandmother, who has had multiple strokes, is now paralyzed on her right side of her body and is unable to speak and do any of her daily activities. My aunt who is an RN had taught me the ropes on to being my grandmother's temporary caregiver. Not only did I enjoy the time spent with my grandmother, but I also enjoyed that I was able to give back and make an impact on her life. I only hope to do the same for others.

I'm a very hard worker dedicated to providing the best care and companionship possible. My background is in social work. I've worked in hospice, home health and previously as a nursing assistant. My previous work as been as a social worker for the state department of child protective services and recently as a youth care worker. I love to read and get to know the life stories of who and why we are who we are.

As a great caregiver I try to remain very positive all the time. I am an honest and trust worthy person Being patient, responsible, dependable and have great communication skills with my patients is at the most important to me. As a caregiver I am very empathetic towards my patients and compassionate, it is what establishes a great relationship with each patient. Understanding the patients needs and desires to be able to take care of them efficiently is at the most important to their family and myself. It is what makes work environment healthier and understanding for patient and healthcare worker. I became a caregiver to be able to help those who cant help themselves, to try and help them build the confidence some may have lost during some difficult moments they must have gone through if it may have been through some therapy, or a on going treatment they are still facing. Offer those encouraging words we all need to hear from time to time, show them some one cares if they have no one else to turn too. Being a caregiver gives me great feeling knowing that I have made a difference in someones life. When I see a patient has recovered more that 50 percent it gives me great joy to know I have made a difference in someones life. To have a patient to being speechless to even a good morning is a huge difference to me. Its what makes me want to go to work every day and know I will continue to make a difference in someones life.
