Danyelle A.

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.

What makes me a great caregiver is that I go beyond of what my expectations are to be expected to make sure that my clients and patients are well taken care of and always with a smile on their face. what made me become a caregiver ? Is the experience that I went through with one of my family members being miss treated everyone is not made to be a caregiver ,your heart and soul you have to be in this career have compassion be understanding and loving have empathy and be sensitive . What I like about being a caregiver ? Is that I having privilege the honor to work with those that need help in their daily task or in their last days ,to make there comfortable make sure that they are happy I have met wonderful great people in my career I wouldn't trade it for anything . Its my calling to be here for those that cannot help themselves to assist them in their daily task .I love my job. What have I achieved in my calling ?The trust of my client and families , to believe in me to leave their love ones in my arms and in my care to make sure that they are taking care of to give them the love the peace of mind that they need when they need to go to work with no worries.
