About Eric

I have taken care of my grandfather FOR about 3 years prior to his passing. I am a very kind and caring individual. I am very overprotective when it comes to elderly. I don't like it when the much younger generation try to take advantage of them. I am very sympathetic to their pain weather ot emotional and or physical. I was a Certified Nursing Assistant for 5 years. Which alluowed me to experience taking care of the elderly in and out of facilities. The one thing that I enjoy most about taking care and helping them is learning from them and bonding with them. All that they ask is to be treated with respect and for someone to simply listen. When they dp something on their on time am amazed and always praising them for a job well done. I let them know throughout the day of how very proud of them I am. A personal achievement that I am proud of is being able to move to a new state and city and start fresh at a new life.

I think the traits that make me a good candidate for caregiver are that I am empathetic to the client's situation, understanding that I am their to assist the client' in achieving their goals, and I'm an active listener and truly try to get a view of the entire situation going on. I have worked with many different populations with stronger emphases in mental health, developmental disabilities, and addiction and recovery. I have worked with clientele as young as 18 and as old as 90, so I am rather comfortable working with any age group.
