CNA

Mr. John F. home care
I was hired to take care of their daughter Patti which was developmentally disabled. I assisted with everything. She had several surgeries thru the years which I took care of her in hospital and when she came home helped her with physical therapy. When I started Mrs. F was diagnosed with cancer so I assisted her and then stayed with them and did hospice care for her. When John was ill I helped him .Patti ended up in nursing home which I did private care at the home. Her father never let others take care of her but me. Patti ended up passing away and 3 weeks after my boss John passed away.

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.
