Home Health Aide (HHA) Caregivers in Vernonia - 5 caregivers found

I am a very compassionate and patient caregiver with 22 years of experience helping to care for individuals with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. I began providing care when a close friend of mine needed help caring for her sick mother. I worked with this sweet lady for seven and a half years in which I refined my caregiving skills. The bond that I build with all of my clients is unmistakably genuine and sweet. Over my career I have cared for 15 different people and each one of them and the experiences that we have shared has helped to enrich my ability to care for the next one. I am also a proud mother of two wonderful children and that in itself speaks volume about my ability to care for others. I truly care for my clients as if they were a part of my own family.

Hardworking,loving,compassionate and down to earth

I began my career as a basic care giver after high school because I wanted to pay homage to my family, by helping other families. In working for various Assisted Living facilities, I felt I inherited a dozen grandparents! After having multiple ALS clients, and escorting them to their therapies, I became a Physical Therapist Aide, and body mechanics specialist. I then became a certified personal trainer to help clients before the onset of old-age, and in hopes of maintaining their physical independence. I am in the middle of writing my first book, entitled Maintaining Physical Independence to further explain what to expect from their bodies as they enter various wellness programs. I upgraded from being a basic care giver to a Home Healthcare Aide to further my understanding of various clients, and I pray my combine specialties serve my clients well.

I enjoy helping people and supporting them to live the lives that they want to but are unable to on their own. I am a caring person, a hard worker and I pay close attention to details. I enjoy cooking and preparing meals and general house cleaning. My grandmother was a CNA at a hospital for over 14 years and I always wanted to help people like she did. I have been in the Health Care field for over 14 years , I started out as a CNA and found my way into the ID/DD community and I love it!
