About Terri

AT Bible Study one night Mrs Judy said she needed help with her mom. i had my first care giving job. I love God and People. I like it for many reasons..but mainly because there is a need and I can't stand anyone to be mistreated, feel unloved , be lonely etc.AND I am good at talking with them once they allow me to be their friend. It is very difficult for them to accept losing their independence.they worry about being burdens to family members.I am a nurturer so I do my best to comfort and speak words of life . Got my high school diploma around 2010 via Springfield prep school. big deal for me:) I've had the honor to care for several people in the past 12 or so years .All of them precious... FROM CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE TO ALZHEIMERS, , stroke victim, and then there were a few that were just getting to old to get themselves to dr appt , church, etc.Some of these were happy and some were very sad. one in particular was s so insecure. Loved by her family but needed a breakthrough.I Enjoyed praying for & bringing lil gifts to cheer her..not long after she told me that she worried about her family. she was a worrier. it took a min but we began to pray together casting all her worries on God and the outcome was amazing! the sense of peace she gained brought hope back in to her life. and joy to her family IN SUMMARY I AM GOOD AT WHAT I DO BECAUSE I AM IN LOVE WITH GOD AND PEOPLE. A GOOD CAREGIVER CAN BE TAUGHT HOW TO CHANGE A BED, BATHE SOMEONE, ADMINIST

    My name is Shawn and I became a caregiver over 22 years ago. I'am 39 years old. I became a caregiver because I loved to help my grandparents around their home with the things that they could not do on their own. I enjoyed helping other. I like being a caregiver because I love working with people, and I have a passion for taking care the elderly. Making my clients smile and live comfortable in their own home, that put a smile on my face. A personal achievement that I am proud of is, I graduated from college with my Business Associate Degree. in Business Management. I'am a Certified Nursing Assistant and a Certified Patient Care Technician. I have 4 kids, I love to read and spend time with my family and friends.
