About Jody

Passion for what you do in life is important. Passion and fulfillment is what was discovered when I became a Certified Nursing Assistant working with the seniors in my community. The bonds and memories made are invaluable and to be treasured to the end of my life. My past work fields include; Stay at Home Mom of two sons, Ga. Realtor, Travel & Tourism as well as the Health & Wellness Industry. After having worked 3 years as a CNA/HHA in the Home Healthcare Industry for a large medicare funded company, large amounts of varied experiences were gained. Life put a fork in the road and I chose to direct my life to Lawrenceville, Ga. in order to care for my own mother suffering from dementia and cancer. Now I am seeking to return back to the Woodstock, Canton area which is closer to my own children and relatives, and find a good fit with full time care-giving. Have always been proud of the work I deliver. Character traits I embrace are; Honesty, Compassion, Reliable, Fair, Flexible, Open-Minded, Humorous, Punctual, Dependable, Positive Energy, Trustworthy, Creative, Outgoing, Sincere, Spiritual, Genuine, Kind and Love to Laugh. Thank you for your consideration. Lets Talk!

I became a caregiver because of my mother, At the age of 10 my mother died and I couldn't do nothing to help her. So I decided to get in the medical field for that reason. I love being a caregiver because it is a passion of mine to see people smile, and live there life to the fullest. Some of my achievements are attending school for certification, and also I am now enrolled in school for Health Information Systems and Business Administration. I chose this field because I want to make sure the patients get the treatment, respect, and etc they deserve. I want to see people that take care of these patients act professionally, and treat the patients like the way they (caregivers) would want to be treated. Everybody tells me I have a wonderful personality, and they can tell I care about the patients needs. I like to have fun, spending time with family. I am here to help. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant and also have CPR and First Aid Card. I am very skilled in the following: • Range of Motion (ROMs) • Cancer Care • Hospice Care • Diabetes Care • Normal Activities for daily living better known as (ADLs) • Stroke Care • ODD • Respite Care • Respiratory Care • Spinal Injury Care • Long Term Care • ADHD • Down Syndrome Care • Assisted Living Care • Infant Care • Babysitting Services • Tube Feeding Care • Overnight Care • Spinal Injury Care • Tube Feeding Care • Nanny Services • Pain Management • Medication Aide • Mobility Care • Dementia (AKA Alzheimer's) • Cerebral Palsy • Autism • Any Many More I also can assist with errands, laundry, doctors’ Appointments, dishes, meal preparation, paper work, very skilled with computers and many more.

My grandparents, as well as my great-grandparents, made a very strong impression on me. I enjoyed spending time with all of them in the summer. Goodness, kindness, and unconditional love from my sweet relatives taught me to be loving, caring, and considerate of my elders. After doing volunteer work at nursing homes, I really felt this was my special 'calling'. Now, I enjoy each and every day, learning from the elderly people that are in my care. Hope to hear from you soon!!
