I find that working as a Caregiver, especially for the elderly and disabled is very rewarding and humbling work. I have worked in this capacity for two elderly family members and one friend. These individuals need the care of a person with patience, understanding, compassion and a willingness to assist them. I believe that by caring for these individuals I have further developed the skills necessary to keep them comfortable and happy. I offer dependability and a sincere willingness to answer the call of duty,and to work as a team member. I assist in the clients daily living activities such as eating, dressing, bathing, toileting, meal preparations and enhancing their lives by giving them the opportunity to work with someone who is willing to participate in some of their favorite activities, like arts & crafts, baking, games, etc. I also ensure that emotional and mental support as well as physical assistance is given. I offer one on one contact with the client to keep their minds alert and to let them know that I genuinely care about their wholeness and well being.
