Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Caregivers in Benton - 4 caregivers found

As a person who took care of her grandmother, I am very compassionate. I understand that they are old and fragile and need love. I am a very patient in general and even more as a caregiver. This job is caught my eye because I love taking care of people. I am the youngest in the family so it was them who always took care of me and as I grew older, I found myself wanting to take care of other people and family members like my family took care of me. I love making people that I take care of make their problems go away even just temporarily. I love making them happy and forget their problems. I love affecting people's lives positively. I took care of my grandmother growing up. When I used to live in the Philippines, she was one of the people that raised me. I moved to the US and had to leave her but I promised myself that I will get her to come here one day. Finally, I got her a Visa and she got to see the United States and got to take care of her like she took care or me. She was with me for 2 years and I had to stop college so I can take care of her. I have no regrets, I loved every single moment we spent together. She was 82 when she came here, I had to bathe her, change her clothes, make food for her and help her get to bed. She has rheumatoid arthritis in her knees so it was very hard for her to walk so I had to escort her wherever she went. She was also showing signs of Dementia. Even though we talked about the same things over and over again, I would go back a thousand times just so I can see and take care of her again. Her Visa expired and had to go back to the Philippines. She is 87 years old now. Whenever I talk to her, she would never fail to thank me for taking care of her.

What I enjoy most about being a care giver is helping those who can't help themselves. I'm very patient and understanding. My years of working with the geriatric population has given me the experience I need to provide adequate care. One of my achievements I'm proud of is recently being accepted into Penn State Hazleton's practical nursing program, upon completing my CNA course this upcoming April.

I work at hosptial full time as an respiratory therapist . I work in icu with patients .I love working patient and helping them out i also was an cna for couple of years to.

A few things that I have achieved that make me proud is that I got my CNA in November 2018 at the age of 16, I then pursued and obtained my high school diploma June 2019 at the age of 17. I have a year and 3 months experience in skilled nursing and have continued in the healthcare field as a PCA. I enjoy working with elderly clients because they have many great stories, experience, and advice to share. I've always been a very motivated, goal oriented person, and I love to learn which drew me into the healthcare field from the beginning.
