About Gregory

I became a caregiver; years ago, when a friend of mine, who is a caregiver, asked me to substitute for her for a weekend and look after 6 men who were in a home and needed care. Ever since then, I have had a desire to be a Caregiver. I am a people-person; who likes to help others. I have had a couple of people; in my immediate family, who were disabled, so I know what it is like to care for people who are disabled. I have also worked for Company, in and around the Chicago area, as a Caregiver for people who were disabled. I have at least 1 1/2 years experience working with people who were partially paralyzed or had heart problems. I cook, clean, drive them where they need to go, and administer their medications.

    Although I have always had a natural ability to help others, I became interested in caregiving and the healthcare field after taking care of my uncle who had cancer. I understood the importance in providing quality care for those in need. As a certified CNA, being passionate in what I do, responsible, empathetic, and self-less are the qualities I am proud to carry. An accomplishment I am proud of is going back to school to pursue nursing and maintaining a high GPA.
