About April

I'm a compassionate caregiver. Very loyal I enjoy caring for my clients. Each client is different, their personalities, their demeanors and their habits. I became a care giver because I am outgoing, very dependable. I am dedicated to their needs. I enjoy people. Kindness and attention is important to care for someone's loved one. Their needs come first. I am prompt and and very honest. I have handled money in the past as well. I like learning about the clients. their ways, their habits, what they enjoy, what they do not enjoy, just getting to know them as well. I think my greatest achievement is getting the clients to trust me in my care and that I'm there to help them in any way. I will prep meals, manage meds, light housekeeping. Running errands.

I am a great caregiver because I take pride in my work. I treat my clients as if they are my own when providing care and treatment. I chose to become a caregiver because I have a passion and desire to help and give back to others. Some of my personality traits that make me a great worker are having a lot of patience, knowing how to be kind and gentle, and knowing how to enpathize with my clients throughout their disease process. When providing care, I don't look at it as job. I actually enjoy my field of work and aim to better the quality of life. A personal achievement I am proud of is earning my RN degree and leaving a lasting impression on my clients. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is building a trusting and loving relationships with my clients so that they can depend on me in their time of need.

I am always pleasant, I strive to be punctual. Every individual I have worked with has always had good things to say about me. I think the conversation and companionship with the elderly is amazing. I am a retired hairdresser of 35 years and when I was home I new I would have to find something to occupy my time and being a care giver seem to be the best fit for me.Now I am 10 years into the care giving and I love it
