Hospice Care Caregivers in Hood River County - 13 caregivers found

I come from a family of individuals who have dedicated their life to the bettering of less fortunate individuals. A mother who has worked with mentally handicapped children for over 20 years, an aunt and uncle who currently care for and assist mentally handicapped adults, and a cousin who also works with elderly persons to better their standards of living and independence. This instilled in me a sense of compassion for those who cannot care for themselves, and motivated me to join them in this mission. My favorite part about being a caregiver, has been those times when I was able to help share an experience with someone who otherwise may have never been able to enjoy it again in their lifetime. I also enjoy gaining insight from the wisdom that my clients have obtained over the course of decades before me. I especially am drawn to persons who have served in the armed forces, and lived through some of the roughest times in world history. They are the true hero's in this life, and often don't get the attention they deserve. While I recognize that certain tasks involve some level of discomfort for many individuals, such as bathing and even simply inviting a stranger into ones home, I have become accustomed to these struggles, and have learned how to minimize that apprehension, while still maintaining the clients decency and feeling of privacy. My goal is to provide the support needed to give back whatever the client feels they have lost, and give peace of mind to family, knowing that their loved ones are safe even when they cannot be there for them.

My name is Ariel Bartlett and I have been a caregiver for six years now. I have experience in a wide variety of areas, including Alzheimer's and dementia, nursing home work, rehab facility work, treatments such as ostomy care and wound care, med aide work, and homecare work including hospice and end of life care in a full care setting and light care with transportation, cooking, cleaning and medication management. I feel my wide variety of experience makes me an excellent candidate for you or your family's caregiving needs! I am a quick and eager learner with a passion for health care and great service to the elderly. I will be starting to take classes as they become available in my area! *email and text is the best way to contact me-- Ariel.e.bartlett@gmail.com* Phone calls will be responded to as quickly as possible.

Hello. I believe that every person that I work with is an opportunity to change a life. In a world so full of hate and confusion, I want to show love and compassion. I believe in serving with dignity, respect and patients. I listen to my clients and try to work with them in a way that they see fit. I make sure to customize my care for each individual. I look forward to serving you and your loved one.

I love being a caregiver. I have a special place in my heart for the elderly, they have experienced so much in their lives and are so full of wisdom. I can only imagine how frustrating it would be not being able to do the things I have always done. I have been a certified caregiver for a year and have many years of care-giving for a dear friend of mine. I have been a Hospice Volunteer since 2011. I am moving to Dufur Oregon on May 1st. Thank you

I've been in the healthcare field for about 16 years. I have experience with elder care and DD care. I have managed group homes and started my own in home care agency. I am very passionate about what I do as I feel I was put here on earth to make a positive impact for those I serve and care for. I feel that if I can somehow make someones life more enjoyable or bring a higher level to their quality of life then I have done my job. These are our parents, grandparents, friends and family who need quality care and I know when I am with them, they are receiving genuine love and care. It brings me joy to the positive impact I make in their lives.
