I became a caregiver to be able to help some one family get through difficult times that they may be having with their love ones. And be able to give and show support in their love ones daily activities. I enjoy being a caregiver because it gives me a chance to show myself approve to some one else's family. I am able to be responsible for my patients, take pride in my work, and be a team player. As well as letting the families know that they can rely on me at any giving time to provide good services to their love one. My personal achievement is taking care of my comatose son, and knowing that I was able to do the best job in providing care for him before he past. After he past I took the opportunity to go back to school and received my Patient Care Diploma, Nursing Aid/ Home Health Review Certificate, as well as my Phlebotomy Certificate. I take pride in my work when I am dealing with my patients, I make sure my patients mental, and physical health comes first as well as there families needs.

Hello, I am an experienced care giver companion who genuinely likes helping people. My experience is with the elderly suffering from mid stage Alzheimer's, stroke recovery, vision impairment and limited mobility. I am very kind and compassionate as well as organized and trustworthy. I am intelligent and resourceful and I get along very well with my clients and their families. I like to work directly for clients, bypassing the agency mark up, establishing a semi permanent arrangement with the client/family. I have letters of recommendation from the two different out of town daughters. One of a couple I cared (89,92), who I eventually helped move to assisted living. I live in Largo FL adjacent to Indian Rocks Beach and Bellaire Beach. I have an AHCA level 2 backround check and my BLS. I completed a CNA prep course and I received a HHA through a local agency. I have an associate's degree + several courses at St. Petersburg College toward by BA. I do not have children which gives me a lot of flexibility. Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon.
