Hearing Disorders Caregivers in Overton - 34 caregivers found

A little over 10 years ago I got a call from my aunt while at work that my mom had almost fallen from a step ladder at my house. She was by herself and we had just lost my dad to his battle with cancer a few months prior so it was on that day that I quit my job as an event planner to stay home and care for my elderly mother. She has forever changed my view on the importance of caring for loved ones in times of need. My family lost a wonderful soul over a year ago and I find myself wanting to share my compassion, love, and assistance to other seniors who are in need because I believe in sharing this blessing with others to live each day to its fullest.

My name is Melissa, I am 40 years old. I have over 10 plus years of experience working with the elderly. I am patient and kind and I love being with people. I love working and being the elderly.

Knowing that I have made a difference and assisted in another's life is all the reassurance I need

My inspiration for becoming a caregiver came from my experience raising 2 children with developmental challenges. Both of them are wonderful, successful, independent and completely well balanced adults. When my autistic son was about 8, the doctors told me he would never be able to live independently. He now works with people with autism, has had a paper about autism published, has a computer repair business on the side, is a professional photographer, is a part of the Montavilla Emergency Warning Shelter, in Portland, OR working specifically with severe weather readiness, and is also street medic. My other son is in his senior year of college about to earn dual degrees in Elementary Education and Ministry, and is on the Dean's list. I realized that my passion was seeing the needs of a person and finding the right, personal method to create a healthy, successful and happy life for my clients, and never placing limits on what they can do. I have worked with a variety of children and adults with varied needs. I currently work with a senior who enjoyed scrabble and word searches, in their past they loved to do wood working so we do as much of that as they are physically able. My method is to get to know my client, their past hobbies, interests and then continue doing those activities (yes sometimes I have to get creative due to medical needs, my current client has some vision loss, so I have acquired a large, black and white scrabble set). Talking to seniors about their past is also enjoyable as is listening to their favorite music!

Im going to say as long as i can rember ive always been a giver and a helper. I love being me and helping others i believe i was born to do this, help. I am a go getter and a people person always. I am proud at 50 i went back to school to learn more in the medical field. I'm a patient person and thorough and reliable. I'm easy going and always pleasant and strive to please

Hi my name is Tammy and I would love to be your personal caregiver for your loved one mainly because I loved the older generation enlisting to them with their stories from when they grow up. You may ask yourself what am I getting from this well I am getting to be able to get to know your loved one for who they are. I once had a patient that had developing Alzheimer's. Every time I had to go home she would not let me leave without giving me a hug. In the end she knew me better then her own family. I always try to remind her who her family really was. I find caregiving you be a rewarding and enjoyable job.

What makes me a great caregiver is I love people. I take a personal interest in people. I am very caring, hardworking, understanding, patient, and spiritual. I am a humble person who will show your family member the love, respect, and care that they need to help them get better. I will always be there for support, I love making people smile .
