About Esme

I became a caregiver because it is something I enjoyed doing before I had any certifications. I have had no previous work experience, but I have always been generous and wanted to use my time to better the lives of the people around me. Becoming a caregiver was appealing to me because I think it is extremely gratifying to help people not only do things, but encourage them to still be independent and give them confidence in their minds and bodies. I am proud of myself for earning good grades and coming to the decision to attend nursing school to earn my RN. I plan on doing this at St. Petersburg College as soon as I graduate (May 17) and then work my way up to attaining my Master's Degree. I want to be a caregiver because not only is it gratifying work, it is also great hands-on and interactive experience that will aid me in becoming a nurse.

    I am HHA certified. When I take on a family I want to really KNOW the folks in my care. It makes for meeting their needs better, and provides an atmosphere of trust and well being. I have visited " Seniors" ever since I was a little girl, with my mother; such fascinating stories! I have worked in the medical fields and in an elder care business for over 10 years. I know how vital it is for all humans to be validated by love and attention. One of my accomplishments was to be present, and give assurance to a client that did want to "go". She died peacefully, listening to her favorite music , while I held her hand! I consider that a great honor. I am a college graduate. Graduated with honors at St. Petersburg College in Allied Health , ( Radiology ). In my youth , I was a laboratory technician. Treating and helping folks and trying to make them smile, has apparently what I have done all my life . I still consider it an honor.

    I had a job opportunity come up to be a caregiver and I needed a job so I took it. I like being a caregiver because it gives me the opportunity to serve and help others in need. I am proud that I have gone to college and got my degree in culinary arts. I really enjoying cooking for others.
