About Lyndsay

I am 22 Years old and just recently moved to Columbus GA from Boston, MA. I have been a caregiver since 2014. I always knew I wanted to become a registered nurse since an early age, and becoming a CNA wasn't always a thought of mine. I first knew I wanted to become a CNA when my nana was placed in a nursing home. I would visit everyday and I saw how poorly the residents were treated by the CNA'S at this particular facility. I thought to myself if I can become a CNA, then I know there is atleast one person that will treat them right. I enjoy being a caregiver because it gives me a purpose. Everyday I wake up and go to work I'm making a difference in someones life. A personal achievement I am proud of is the time I spend helping a friend of mine gain strength to walk again after being paralyzed in a motor accident. I have a very out going personality, I carry on conversations well, I have a deep understanding of dementia. I am dementia certified I took a 7 module course during my time working in a skilled nursing facil

What makes me a great caregiver I always seek the best needs for the clients. I'm passionate about my work. I'm loving, compassionate, and caring. I do the best I can to make the client feel comfortable. I always wanted to be a caregiver, mainly because my mother inspired me so much. She was a caregiver (nurse) for a long time. When she became I'll I became her caregiver and gave her all the comfort, love, and nourishment she always gave to her clients and others.

I became a caregiver by nature. My mother died when I was 10 and I became the caregiver of my 7 siblings. Also, several members of my family have become ill and I have had to care for them as well. My husband, whom has died, live with Huntington disease for several years. I was his caregiver. When my brother had a stroke, he didn't trust anyone else so I cared for him until he was able to maintain on his own. My son, developed heart failure. I immediately stepped in and took total care of him. Through my diligence, he is now a new man; maintaining his heart condition with enjoyable life! I enjoy caring for others because it gives me a satisfaction to know they are going to receive the best of care, because I will always give my best. It is the way I would want to be treated with love and respect.
