Depression Caregivers in Halifax County - 51 caregivers found

I am a great caregiver because of my patience, my compassion for others and my attention to detail. I consider myself a very empathetic individual which makes caring for others that much easier. What made want to take on this opportunity is my great grandmother who is now passed on but while she was here I spent time taking care of her (feeding her, bathing her, entertaining her etc.) So I understand what it's like to have a family member in that situation and how they need proper care to make them comfortable. Mostly I enjoy about being a caregiver is how it makes me feel, knowing I helped someone just brings me a different type of joy. I also enjoy meeting my clients.

I'm a very passionate person and love to help others in need

Hi my name is Andrekia Brown. To be a great caregiver you have to be confident in your work ethic. Be trustworthy to your clients and yourself. And always be attentive and show compassion to other's feelings and beliefs. I enjoy working with people and most enjoy jobs where you have one on one interaction with others. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver I get to make an enormous difference in people's lives. I get to enjoy being a part of a new family and work from a home environment. A personal achievement I am proud of I just became certified to open my own childcare.

I have always been passionate about caring for others. I am outgoing cheerfully calming and welcoming fast learner always on time and caring. I learned at age 11 how to take care of children and elderly. I have been taking care of my aunt for 2years she has early stages of dementia. I also have a autistic sister whom I've been taking care of since I was 15 years old. My ultimate goal is to become a registered nurse my passion is to own a homeless shelter and a nursing home to provide the best care possible for all elderly and to also have a day center for adult and children with autism.

I have 5 years of experience as a caregiver. I provide personal care and companionship. I am CPR certified and fully vaccinated!

I love to help my patients. I became a caregiver because patients need to be treated with love not treated bad. It makes me feel wonderful when my patients smile and is happy to see me. I just love helping anybody i can.

I have been a caregiver for about 10 years now. I have worked different jobs in between but there is nothing I like to do more than provide care to people who need it.

I am a single mother who worked as a delivery driver for 2 years. I noticed many of the people I delivered to needed some form of assistance and didn't seem to receive it. I wanted to make myself avaliable, because I believe everyone should have access to help. [?]

I honestly never saw myself as becoming a caregiver. I am very energetic but at the same time I have a very laid back personality. I am very easy to get along with and enjoy meeting and getting to know new people. Most people would say I have a lot patience but I just try to treat people as I would want them to treat me. Back in 2010 I made a decision to move back to Halifax County to be closer to my aging but very active and healthy parents. Not long after the move, we made the decision to allow my intellectually challenged older brother to move in with me. I eventually had to became more active with helping my dad as he started to have health problems and almost simultaneously, my brother's health began to decline. Unfortunately back in 2017, I lost both my dad and brother. Being able to help them with their doctor appointments, medicine and other responsibilities such as hygiene and bathing when it came to my brother, was hard work but an honor. So many people have so many responsibilities that they are not in a position to be a caregiver to their family members when in need. I can truly say from experience it is very rewarding duty. It would be fair to say my experience with my family attracted me to becoming a caregiver. Since, the passing of my brother and father I help my mother out a great deal and having been working with individuals who are intellectually challenged, autistic and deal with various health issues. The thing I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the opportunity to treat and assist a person in need with dignity. This many times is not how we hear people are treated. So the chance to treat someone who may just need a little help or a lot, with dignity and respect is an opportunity and privilege for me. Everyone is someone's mother, father, sister, brother, daughter or son. Being able to help my father remain mostly independent in his final years is probably my greatest achievement and honor.
