About Sharon

I believe I am a great care giver because I love taking care of people. Everyone needs someone to be compassionate and caring in their lives. My late husband was terminally ill for 15 years and his parenta were not in the best of health. I stayed home and took care of all 3. When my husband passed 2012 I felt lost then my n laws passed away not to far behind him. I decided that I loved taking care of people and I decided to get my cna and a week before my state boards the Haynes family came to me which were good customers of mine at Journeys End restraunt where I started serving at after my husband died. I was with the mother first until she passed and then the daughter who had no children and had cancer. I took care of her and the last month I stayed with her 24 hours 7 days a week. She wanted to die at home and I made a promise to her that she would not die alone that I would be their and I was. Everybody needs to know that when family members cannot be there that someone will be.

I became a caregiver because of a family member who became very ill. I became his caretaker and enjoyed taking care of him even though it was a difficult time for me. He was very comfortable with the care that was provided and it was something I knew I wanted to do from that time on. What I like most about being a Caregiver is I like to see that a patient/client is being well cared for and that I am making that happen for them. I like to see the satisfaction on their faces knowing I have done a job well done. A personal achievement I am proud of is that every patient/client that I have worked with, providing care for, was very pleased with my work and they have expressed it with words of appreciation themselves and with my supervisors. I am a person who takes my job seriously and I like to be proficient in my work. I have been in the Healthcare field for 15 plus years and am very skilled in it. I like to get the job done right the first time. I can also be humorous with the patient/client when it is appropriate to make their day a little brighter. I really enjoy working with them.
