    Experience & Education

    Caregiver/Med Aide

    Dec 2015 - Jun 2016
    FirCrest Community Living
    I cared for memory care patients in a large facility. I was trained to transfer patients from wheelchairs, recliners, beds, showers, etc. I bathed, fed, and groomed residents. I monitored patients and reported any changes in conditions or vital signs. I administered medications to all residents. I was delegated to take CBG results and give insulin shots. I followed written and/or oral instructions to administer medications and document dosages and times. I was trained to keep a schedule and time management to make sure patients vitals were taken on time, as well as medications administered on time. I was trained to proficiently read medication administration records. I learned interpersonal skills as you have to be very sensitive and compassionate with these residents. I was trained on wound care and I am CPR certified.

    I genuinely care about others, no matter the age. Outside of my wishes of being a medical assistant, I wanted to be a caregiver because I would have one-on-one time with the person. This desire of mine grew as I started working for Clark Lindsey. As a waitress, I get to know the residents to an extent. The reason I joined Synergy (home health care), was to be a companion to residents that may not have that or any type of care as they used to. Knowing that they don't get to see their loved ones as much as they want to, I feel even closer to them because I feel like I can be that person for them-someone who is close to them, cares for them, provides safety, and to really listen and have interest in them. For the client that I currently have as well as others in the past, I learn a lot of life experiences from them and I love to see their eyes light up when they tell me parts of their past as if they are reliving it again and again. Lastly, my personal achievements that I'm proud of happens at Clark Lindsey and with a client I used to have. At Clark Lindsey, when residents would come up to me (when I'm working, or just visiting) telling me that they always enjoy seeing me, always makes my day. Also, recently with a client, I aided in the recovery of one walking again. Even though, I don't see him anymore, I'm happy that he is with his wife and truly happy.
