Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) Caregivers in Shackelford County - 5 caregivers found

I decided to become a caregiver, mainly, because I had worked in so many jobs and careers where I had been laid off or the company went out of business. I had a friend that was in the industry and informed me that in the healthcare business you will practically always have a job. Honestly, I sincerely wish that I would have gotten into the industry right out of high school some twenty five years ago. Little did I know that I would come to absolutely love the job and the position. The thing I like most is meet the variance of people and building the relationships with someone I otherwise would never have had the opportunity of meeting. As a caregiver you have to understand that in this business many of the people we come in contact with eventually move on to the next life, but I cherish those moments and like to believe that I had a small hand in making the process and transition a bit more comfortable not only for the person but for the family as well. My personal achievement that I am most proud of is probably just the fact that I have been able to just go to work with a smile on my face and it not feel like a job or a task. I can go to sleep and feel that I did something productive with my time and made somewhat of a difference in some ones life each and every day; whether it was assisting them, just acknowledging the in some way, or just bringing a smile to their face. I love the industry so much and really do not like the bad taste you hear when the words "nursing h

I am a very determined person, I can be hard headed at times. When I start something I do like to get it done before I leave or my shift ends. I care alot about who I take care of, I also put alot of love into my job when taking care of the elderly. Spending quality time with then elderly and getting to know them is what I enjoy the most leaving what they have done, where they have been, and what they have been through and what they have experienced while living. I've taken care of so many people over the years but the most important proud of was taking care of a trach patient. That was a very learning experience. I've taken care of my great grandfather which is my Mom's mother's daddy. I helped take care of him up to his passing. I also helped take care of my Mom's mother, whom declined rapidly in health. While taking care of these two I learned a lot and that inspired me to become a caregiver. My mother's mother passed away as well. I also took care of my Mom whom declined rapidly due to a very weak heart in which she passed fairly quickly. That was a very hard time for taking care of my mom and experiencing the changes of her body while passing. Taking care of these 3 was a very learning experience for me. I have had to learn to proceed with my life and go forward and put to use what each one therapy precious souls taught me. Upon taking care of a loved one I look at them as if they were one of my very own family member. I take care of them as I did with my loved one. I've had alot of experience that have taught me good things to use throughout my CNA experience that I use on a daily basis. And I cherish each and everything I learn I try to use it daily. I have also taken care of 3-4 other people whom are not related to me in their own homes. I have references that you call to confirm I've taken care of their loved one. I've been an aide since 1993. I have learned since taking care of loved ones and other people's loved ones you have to have patience, respect
