Assisted living facility
I currently work full-time the 3-11 shift most days at a retirement assisted living place for elderly women in Salem. It's both medical and non medical. I basically do what a CNA does only without the CNA title and certificate. Give meds, help with showering, spend time with the residents, remind residents when it's time to come down for supper, give out things like eye drops, inhalers, for those who take them, etc.

I have also volunteered for a few months at a nearby assisted living place where I helped with exercise time and did activities like word game (put a long word on a board and the residence think of as many little words from the big word as they can) with the residence. I also washed dishes and talked to the residence to keep them company.

l became a caregiver because it is one of the most rewarding things, one can do. l have a passion for putting others first, when you see somebody able to lead a happy, safe and fulfilling life that otherwise would be a challenge. And there is simply no reward quite like watching the smile emerge and hearing their laughter. The thing that l love most about caregiving is making a difference in people's lives, bringing hope and a smile to their faces. My personal achievement that l am most proud of is being recognized as the best caregiver of the month, a long term without absence from work. And l also trained and educated others. l am kind, hardworking, loving, compassionate, emphatic and l love what l do with a passion.

My first job, at age 10, was summer companion to my maternal grandmother. Working for the family matriarch required abundant labor (my grandmother was elderly), but the daily chores gave rise to an unexpected pleasure; I liked being responsible. For 12 lovely summers, I cleared the acorns from her croquet court, hiked to the store to buy her groceries, and delivered her (she did not drive) by rowboat to tea at the homes of neighbors. Within the formality of her cottage, I learned to be a responsible member of a household. And whether I felt like it or not, I learned to be good company. Still under my grandmother's spell, I have worked as a lady's companion and as a gentleman's secretary for more than 20 years. Although I am no longer gathering acorns, I accompany my employers on their travels, keep them company at cultural events, edit their memoirs, and teach them them how to draw and paint. I have found these employments to be congenial and remunerative. They give me great pleasure.
