Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Caregivers in Pottawattamie County - 9 caregivers found

Caring and compassionate caregiver experienced in human services and healthcare. What attracted me to being a caregiver would be my passion to help others. I'm currently going to school to become a therapist, as I've always enjoyed helping others live healthier and happier lives, while also helping them set goals to reach their full potential. Advocating for my clients is important to me, as well as fostering independence and helping my clients learn to advocate for themselves when needed. I believe we were all put on this earth to help support and look out for one another which is why I chose the caregiving and human services career path.

I have been a caregiver most of my adult life starting as a CNA in the 1980's and then moving on to the Emergency Services Field as an EMT/Paramedic to most recently a Medical Assistant , Lab Assistant and Home Health Care for Seniors. I found my calling with working and caring for our most precious people, our seniors. I am compassionate, level headed and patient with a sense of humor and l would love to bring safety and fun into your home.

I am a gentle and loving nurse whose heart is in providing all encompassing care for seniors so they can remain in their home. As a nurse I can help with medications, wound care, diabetes care but also enjoy providing companionship, help with bathing, dressing, ambulation and transfers, cooking, laundry and help around the house.

I enjoy the elderly population and having the opportunity to assist them to be able to stay in their own homes with friends and family available to be around them. It is my passion to communicate with the elderly population and glean wisdom and their understanding of life. I respect who they are and where they have been. It is rewarding to me to spend time with individuals and become a companion and friend. About 15 years ago I was able to purchase a large home for my family with a mother-in-law apartment. We all lived there together until she decided to move to a senior living facility. I believe it was the right thing to do and would do it again but you can not also predicted what the other person really wants. I am a caring person who enjoys being around people. I love adventure and new situations. I have learned a lot about myself in the last 3 years as I have enjoyed working as a medication aide and then as the activity director in an assisted living facility.I have extensive training in Alzheimer/dementia care and I have completed training in a program called Powerful Tools for Caregivers. I have in the past worked with the elderly in their home and am looking forward to doing it again.

I am a gentle and patient person. Enjoy helping others while displaying excellent communication w clients

I'm currently in school majoring in Human Services. I have many years old working in childcare and about a year of working with elders. During my free time I volunteer at local homeless shelters and mentor children. CPR/First aid certified. Also, more than willing to meet so you can get to know me more.

I would be a great caregiver for you or your family member because I love people and caring for others when in need. I love to have conversations while I work with the people who I serve because knowing someone deeper than their needs is what goes a long way. Me being a nurse will help me give more exposure to ones needs and I can use my skills and education to help in further ways. I am proud to be a nurse and I will help you or your family member out with anything that I can and give some exceptional care at the same time.

I believe I'm a great caregiver because I'm passionate about my work. I have over 20 years of experience. I currently take online courses to update my skills and to learn any new updates on Elderly care. I am C.P.R and First Aide Certified.
