About Rico

I believe that I am a great person that cares for life and other people in this world no matter of race, age, or challenges that one faces through the journey of our life in this earth. I am a Personal Care Aide and became a Caregiver due to finding myself helping my parents with basic daily living activities like, going grocery shopping, talking them to doctor appointments, assist with light cleaning, paying some bills and spending a few hours just visiting and talking to them about anything in mind. I enjoy being a Caregiver because I like it, have a caring nature, am respectful, reliable, trustworthy, and just like helping people in any way that I can. I am proud of myself that I have received a Clinical Medical Assistant certification. I have also, received a certification as a Home Care Aide with sixty-six hours of education and training. I do on going education in Health and am always learning new things and as well. I have three references if needed. I have cared for two elderly men one in his seventies and the other in his eighties. I have not just cared for my parents too but also, children and teenagers as well. I had volunteered as a Foster Mentor to a 13 year old teen and also was a Mentor for an 11 year old boy through Big Brothers Big Sisters organization. You can feel free to contact me with a call, text or email. We can then set a time to meet/greet to discuss my professional experience and see how I may or may not help you out with a loved one for care needs. Thank for your time in reading a bit on myself. If you like to hire me please offer to pay for the Background Check and I can give you a copy. -Rico

Before I became a caregiver, I was a caregiver student first. The question is why did I choose to study caregiving? It seems that my interest, my love for this job comes naturally in me. I love to taking care of other people to make other people comfortable, happy and satisfied so I find joy in doing so. Being a caregiver is my way of earning a living. Aside from the fact of earning my living, I also earn friendship & family like relationship. Almost all of my client & their families became close to me. They treated me like family & so did I. Even when my client is gone or passed away but their family are still in contact & whenever they needed my assistance I'm always there to help in any ways I can. My personal achievement is that i am a good husband and a proud father of my daughter who works as an RN at a well known hospital. I am a very caring person with good interpersonal relationship. As a filipino it is in our culture to take care of our elderly. So being a caregiver is not really a job to me because this is what we do and love to do it. I've had years of experiences with different clients and different cases such as dementia-alzheimers disease, parkinson disease, prostate cancer, stroke, bed-ridden, pressure sore, hospice care, diabetes and others. I am a very handy person I have knowledge of automotive mechanic, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, and an Uber rideshare chauffeur driver and other household maintenance.
