About Dennisha

I am a great caregiver because, I have a passion for helping others. Being a caregiver is more than a job for me. God placed me on this earth to be at service for others, and being a caregiver gives me the opportunity to do just that. What I like most about being a caregiver is the smile on the faces of my clients when they are receiving genuine and compassionate care. I have worked in a nursing home setting, in client home setting , and in a group home setting. The place that I like to work most is in the home of my client, because in their homes they are more comfortable and allowed to be themselves. I am fun loving, good spirited, and easy going. I love people and I work best with people. Most importantly I am honest and very dependable, and I take the care of the elderly very serious.

I became a caregiver because i like working with people and making a difference to their lives. I am a good listener and believes that good communication with my co workers and the family member is the key to success.I respect my work and likes to make people feel happy with my services. I am easily adjustable to a new environment and willing to learn more new skills. I am hard working and do not like being late to work and i have cared for the seniors mostly for 9 years and i feel that i have full experience to work as a caregiver.
