I have over 16+ years experience as a Certified nursing assistant. I have worked with a lot of different types of people over the years meaning, I am pretty well arounded when it comes to people. I have worked with a lot of Alzheimer's disease and Dementia clients in my past. What i enjoy most about be a caregiver is the smile that I can put on my clients faces before I leave with them that day. I am willing to give you a background check . Just let me know, thanks. I don't want to pay the fee through the website until someone is interested in me. Thanks for understanding. Lauren

DEDICATED, CALM, AND LOVING I have been caring professionally for seniors for five years and make a commitment each day to meeting my clients with respect, understanding and a good measure of laughter. I am a life long learner and am always seeking to expand my knowledge of how to provide my clients with the very best care. I tailor my services to the changing and unique needs of each individual. My clients know that I care. I take great delight in the relationships that evolve from the giving and receiving inherent in this work. I would love to hear more about your care needs and answer any questions you may have for me. At your request, I will provide my resume and other pertinent certifications. I have excellent references, both professional and personal. With warm regards, Kathleen

Personality traits: I try to put myself in the other person's shoes. I am a person of the highest integrity and dress in a professional manner. I know how to balance empathy and caring in such a way that as I care for the body, the mind and soul feels cared for as well giving a sense of comfort in knowing everything's going to be alright and they feel safe and secure. The thing that attracted me to being a care giver is, I like to "Help" people. I'm interested in the wisdom an elderly person has. I enjoy being a caregiver because helping others puts a smile on their face knowing they are safe and secure in my care at maybe their most vulnerable state. One personal achievement I am proud of is being excepted into the 2019 Strathmore's Worldwide Who's Who in my occupation as a Health Care provider. I have 15 years prior experience as a NA11. I've worked in agencies with Home Health and Hospice and in a skilled nursing facility. I have experience with every aspect that it takes to care for your loved one with over 20yrs. In all. The one thing that makes me a great care giver is I listen to their needs not my agenda and I love what I do.
