I am a responsible and dedicated Caregiver. Over the past 8-10 years I have worked at Assisted Living Centers with residents ensuring their personal needs are being met and they have the best quality of life and I have also worked individually with two special elderly clients to assist them in their lives so in order to prolong their need to go into an Assisted Living Center. With these positions my focus was always make sure they were happy and living each day to the fullest. I am truly committed to improving the overall wellbeing and health through personal care and engagement. I am skilled in assisting patients with daily living, prepare meals, ensuring light exercise when appropriate and making sure my clients have the companionship they deserve. I became a caregiver because my husband was diagnosed with Huntington's disease and seeing a loved one suffer and go from a vibrant man to being confined to a bed unable feed himself or to talk in a matter of a couple years, I wanted to be sure he was always well taken care of and shown love and compassion every day of his life. After he passed away I decided to continue caring for others to ensure others that often do not have a voice were also loved and cared for. I believe being a Caregiver is what I am meant to do.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
