About Morgan

I have been a Caregiver for 1 year now and I am currently employed at the Masonic Home of Shelbyville. I love being a caregiver and caring for the elderly. I have extensive training in Dementia/ Alzheimer's care. I work on the dementia unit at the nursing home and I have attended Hand-in-Hand Training for dementia. I have learned different ways to help these patients with daily tasks, as well as when they agitated and upset. I have worked the Silver Angels Program at The Masonic Home, which is a dinner-time group with dementia patients to help them with sundowning and agitation before dinner until bedtime. The majority of our patients need intermediate to complete care. My favorite part about being a caregiver is getting to build relationships with the elderly and their families, as well as learning about their lives.

    Caregiving is a special job to me because it connects you to people on a level that no one but the two of you will understand. I have worked with many families through a home health company I used to work for and many of my clients became a second family. I present a professional and intelligent manner in regards to healthcare, but I also know the importance of remembering that who you are taking care of is a human being who gets angry and frustrated and embarrassed. I am patient and kind and this field is my passion. The connections that I have made with previous clients is what I'm most proud of in my three year career in senior care. I have just been accepted to Galen College of Nursing where I hope to gain an associates degree with credentials in neonatal care. I'd like to go back to get my masters to work as a neonatal nurse practitioner.
