About Scharney

The most important thing that makes me a great caregiver is that I love what I do. I became a caregiver because my mother and grandmother needed care. So I ask myself," How would I want someone to care for them if I weren't around to do it? Or how would I want to be taken care of myself?" Being of service to others who need compassionate care, and knowing that I made a difference in the quality of someone else's life by being there is what I enjoy most about being a caregiver. One of my personal achievements is with my knowledge and education, I was able to train all of my fiance's CENA's and give them more knowledge than what they came with. In order to care for him properly, so that I can go back to work outside of home.

What makes me a great caregiver is how I treat people with the respect and love they deserve. What attracted me to being a caregiver is my mom, i watched other people take care of her so I wanted to give the same love back to others who are in need. What I mostly enjoy about being a caregiver is helping people. A personal achievement I am proud of is how many people I've helped in my lifetime with my caregiving career:)
