Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Caregivers in Taylorsville - 3 caregivers found

My Name is Kimberly Baker, I first wanted to become a Caregiver when my grandmother became ill when I was nine years old. I started my career in senior care in 2018 and I had the best times with all of my residents that i would care for. I then started working in behavioral care with children and that was an amazing time in my life but when it couldn't work around my nursing school schedule I then changed jobs to a CNA at Forrest General hospital taking care of all types of patients who need total care and the majority of my patients have became a part of who I am and a big reason of why I am becoming a Nurse.

Empathy - Great caregivers are able to cultivate closer bonds by sharing in the happiness or the sadness of the senior they care for. Patient - Caregivers understand that slowing down is a process of aging. A great caregiver allows the elderly to move at their own pace and not make them feel rushed. Dependable & Honest - Caregivers work with a great deal of independence. A great caregiver must be counted on to be where he or she is required to be on time and prepared as well as to perform required duties in the absence of continuous supervision Compassionate - Great caregivers possess a powerful desire to help others, especially seniors. They are inviting and available even if all they do is listen and provide companionship.

I became a Caregiver because it's always been in my nature to help people. I knew when I was very young that I specifically wanted to work with the older population. I enjoy my job because it allows me to interact with my residents/patients, I learn about them and their lives, and most importantly I get to help them, and I personally love it. Recently, I had a group of CNA students who we're shadowing me. When their clinicals were done, they all got together and got me a card saying how appreciative they were for all my help. I took that to heart because it made me feel like I helped them by showing them the proper protocol to giving great patient care. I'm a 22 year old mother of a very energetic 2 year old. As all of my jobs have required working with the general public, I'm a huge people person and I get along with just about any and everyone. I love cooking, reading, sudoku puzzles, and planting different flowers, vegetables, and herbs.
