About Amber

Loving mother of 4 looking to further my career as a caregiver. Great listener, and loves to laugh and joke, keeps my residents smiling and joking back with me. I love helping the elderly, just because they deserve great quality care. My proudest moment as a caregiver is when I had a resident with dementia and a previous stroke actually talk after 6 months of knowing him.

Sat with one male at the veterans home in Manteno, Il. With being very depressed, and having dementia, I started getting him to speak. I took him for walks and to different activities. Helped feeding him, because of limited movement.
