About Shawnickque

I have been a caregiver for 2 and a half years . I started caregiving after I watched my great great grandmother fall victim to cancer . The caregiver she had was mistreating her and giving her drugs. When my family found out we realized the best thing to do was to have a family member look after her . She pasted away at 101 and from there I knew that that was something I needed to do . I needed to become a caregiver to help other seniors and to work with families that felt comfortable and secure that I would do my best to make their lives better. My best and biggest accomplishment since I have been doing this is teaching a 97 year old lady to learn to use computers, email, text , and FaceTime . I sincerely enjoy looking after seniors because I get to learn about different things and aspects of life .

I love working with the elderly because I feel they have so much wisdom to offer and by helping to care for them I learn new things. I feel I would be a good care giver because I am compassionate, empathetic, and I enjoy helping people.

    I am unique I have experience and I am compassionate for elders that are in need. Empathy is something else I bring to the table I am all for the client. When I was a child my grandmother became sick and needed assistance from caregivers they treated her well, furthermore she was an LPN and only wanted the best interest for her patients. I thought it would be great to help elders also have a positive mind set even on a not so good day. Have patience and listen. I must be reliable for my client and the family there is a job that needs to be done and I want them to know they can depend on me. I am trustworthy and honesty is a must. I've watched aides help my grandmother from 1996 to 2004 and they showed me things everyday they came so I would be able to help out myself when they are not there. I started working in home care 2009 after graduating school for medical assisting. I bring great work ethics love and care. Everyone needs someone to depend on and that is me. Thank you
