Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Caregivers in Weeping Water - 4 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 am easy going and fun to be around. I take my work seriously and enjoy helping others be successful in their daily lives. I am CPR, Medication Administration, and First Aid certified through the state of Nebraska.

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.

Hey! I'm John. I think I'm a pretty good caregiver for quite a few reasons. I'm a pretty gentle person, and have experience in dealing with disabilities like Down syndrome, Autism, ETC. I'm pretty attracted to caregiving because I think the opportunity to help another person is amazing. Seniors are an amazing source of knowledge, and I'd love to work with, and be a companion to them. A personal achievement that I'm proud of would probably be having a couple hundred hours volunteering at HETRA. HETRA specializes in therapy for children with disabilities, and I found it very rewarding to do.
