Diabetes Caregivers in Mccormick County - 26 caregivers found

I am a natural nurturing person. I I decided at a very young age that I wanted to be a nurse or a doctor. I had a grandmother that suffered from Alzheimer's disease for 13 years. Majority of the time that she was sick I cared for her. I always knew I needed to get into the health field because I saw how important it is to have a support system. When you have someone in your family who can no longer take care of themselves it seems to have a ripple effect with everyone surrounding them. At some point we could no longer take care of my grandmother in the house so we had to hire a home health aide and in doing so I really grew to appreciate the nature of the job. You become an extended family member you grow great bonds with your clients or patients and their familes. I love being an aide.

Patience. When dealing with the elderly, it is essential for a caregiver to be patient. I enjoy working with people and most enjoy jobs where I have one-on-one interaction with others. I Love Making a Difference in Someone's Life. My personal achievement that I am proud of is Parent hood.

I became a care giver because I love working with people especially the elderly. I love taking care of the elderly and I love the companionship. They have so many stories to tell and they still have so much to offer. They have sent their lives taking care of people and it's time for someone to care for them. My greatest personal achievement is obtaining my CNA license. It is the first thing I have started and finished since high school. Also, being a mother is another thing that is important to me. I am a mother of 2 lovely children I am 31 years old. I work at the Abbeville Nursing Home.

Hello! I owned & operated a boutique home care agency serving seniors for fifteen years prior to selling the agency and moving to SC with my husband and two boys a couple years ago.

I am able to assist with all activities of daily living including light housekeeping, cooking, personal care, transportation, medication, exercise... I have extensive training/experience working with dementia as well as many other conditions. I am honest, compassionate, reliable and hardworking. I look forward to visiting with you about your care needs.

Hello my name is Sabrina! I graduated in 2015 from Ninety Six High School and soon after completed my CNA training through Piedmont Technical College. I have two children and a husband. I have worked for many patients with a large variety of disability's. I make sure all of my patients receive the best care possible!

I became a caregiver when I went back to college to get my BA in 2015. I had no idea how rewarding it would be or how well it would suit me! As a mother of a 1st grader and the daughter of elderly parents, I have more experience than my employment in the field would suggest. I am a naturally caring, trustworthy, and empathetic person. Being a caregiver means helping someone live their life to the fullest extent possible in a happy healthy environment. In my last year of college, I concentrated on social gerontology and my senior thesis was on age-segregation of the elderly. I am especially proud the genealogy researched for my last client. She was so pleased to have that record of her family's history and it was a project we could enjoy together.

I made the decision to help others after helping my grandparents and great grandmother all through out my life. Seeing all of them being surrounded with a supportive family during their final years was truly a blessing, but sadly, not everyone is as lucky to have the constant care they did. I understand that a busy life can get in the way of helping out our loved ones, and I'd love to help them and provide company whenever I can. I love being able to help others and have often been complimented on my patience and understanding with those who need it. In her finally years, I helped my great grandmother with many activities, mostly with household chores and personal company (she was in her 90s whenever I was helping her.) I have been exposed to and helped people with memory issues, cancer, diabetes, etc. I am use to preparing food and reminding others to eat and to take their medication . I have much personal experience in this area and have no problem treating others with respect as I would want to be treated the same way. :)

Hi, my name is Kristy Bobo I have been doing this kind of job for 19 yrs & I enjoy doing it. I love taking care of people,laughing,&talking with them.

I became a caregiver because I had two great aunts that had cancer and I use to sit and watch how caregivers would come and take care of them and I saw how they made a difference in my aunts lives and I knew then and there that I wanted to become a caregiver. I think that me being able to connect with people easily is what makes me a good caregiver. A personal achievement of mines is when I motivated a person who really didn't like doing anything to get up and move and be active. I love to encourage people to do their best and help them and be there whenever they need me to.
