About Kymberly

I am a 32 year old female without children. The reason I became a caregiver because I took care of the Mother until she pasted for 13 years. She was a bed bound stroke patient. I enjoy helping people with here needs and the hours fit within my schedule. I am compassion, caring, and I brighten up anyones day because I always have good energy. The reason I started private care is because I never like nursing home for the elderly. Some people think it's hard to take of a grown person, but all you need is patience, help, and communication. I have much respect for people who keep there loved ones at home. People build their lives at home, I think they should be there until that day comes to an end.

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.
