Experience & Education

Caregiver

Jan 2010 - Mar 2017
Grandmother
I was a caregiver for my grandmother for 7 years. My grandmother was half paralyzed due to several strokes. I helped take care of her with every aspect of daily living from the time she awoke in the morning until bedtime. I cooked her meals, gave her medications, I was her companion, I helped her with bathing and taking her to the bathroom, I cleaned, we went for walks, watched movies, ate together, etc. I spent many years working in an office setting, feeling unfulfilled and as if my work lacked a purpose. I enjoy helping and taking care of people, and wish to pursue a career where I can make a difference in someone's life.

One of the reasons that makes me who I am as a caregiver is the compassion that I have in my heart for my clients and their families. I am a person of integrity, honesty, dependability and concern. It's about giving of myself to my clients and having a sense of the quality of life concerning the lifestyle they have. When I come into their presence a smile comes on their face. I will show the passion, give the encouragement, and hope they will have the confidence that I will know exactly what to do concerning their plan of care. I became a caregiver because of my mother's influence. Listening to her talk about her clients was interesting and heart warming and sometimes I felt sad and wanted to help, so I did! The rewards of being a caregiver is caring for those who cannot care for themselves or just needing a little help. Always understanding what care consists of at all times regardless of the situations and circumstances whether it's to assist or just HELP. I love what I do as a caregiver because I have a compassionate heart.
