About Shahrazad

I am very outgoing and strive to help others. I enjoy learning about others and helping them through difficulties they may endure. To be a great caregiver, compassion is involved. Since I was a child, I always knew I wanted to help others however I could, whether lending an ear to listen, being a friend, or lending a helping hand. I believe that is what attracted me to become a caregiver. I want to become a nurse when I finish school. I really enjoy getting to know my clients, and knowing that I am doing the best I can to make their lives a little better in any way that I can. The biggest personal achievement I am proud of is putting a smile on someones face.

I was a Librarian back in the Philippines but when I came to the US in 2006, my friend encouraged me to try working with the elderly as a caregiver. Since then, I have been working as a caregiver and I developed the love and passion in taking care of the elderly. I have experience in taking care.of elderly with different health issues such as Alzheimers, Dementia, diabetis, heart diseases (ie. CHF), Lung or respiratory disease, stroke, cancer, hospice, etc. I assist my residents with their activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, walking, exercising, etc.. I also do meal preparation , laundry, light housekeeping and medication reminder. I can also assist my Residents with their errands and bring them to their doctor's appointments. I am not only a caregiver to to my Residents but I am also a companion, a friend, a confidant whom they could trust and depend on. I am a responsible person,, loyal and reliable. I stay with my Residents until they terminate my employment. I am proud of being a caregiver because I know I make a difference in the lives of my Residents and I am grateful that most of my Residents that I have taken cared of, including their families, trusted me to be part of the last journey of their lives. My nationality is Filipino and we are known to be the best in caregiving, especially to the elderly.
