About Sadekqua

My name is Sadekqua, but I go by the nickname Dee or Dee-Dee. I am an experienced healthcare professional, who has been in this field since I was 17 years old. I'm currently 35 years old and have worked in various areas of healthcare. I'm a Registered Medical Assistant, with experience in hospitals, doctors offices/clinics, and nursing homes. I've had private duty cases in the hospital and in the homes of others. The age ranges that I've worked with go from newborns to seniors. I really love being in this field, and that's why I've been in it for so many years. I'm loving naturally, I care about the well-being of others, and I enjoy making others feel good. I'm also a dog lover.

1)I became a caregiver because I love to help others and make a different in someone else's life .2)What I like about being a caregiver is,to be able to help someone and it's really make me happy . Because I am a loving & caring & respectful ,trustworthy person .When I'm helping someone I feel very happy , especially for those that can't help themselves. 3) A personal achievement that I am proud of ,is all my four children are done with college and one of them is married and started with new job and have a funny and beautiful little girl that's make the whole family really happy. and my last one/son is graduated done with college & already starting working. All 4 of them are doing really well and some of them are already starting their own business. And To me that's a big accomplishment and very proud of all of them. That makes me really happy &they are really close to God that 's making me even more happier. Only God can do such things ...To me it's a dream come true & Glory to GOD. 4)About myself , I've been married for 34 +years and I have four children and I am God fearing . And I've been Cna for more than 20 years and +and I love what I do . The reason that I love it is because I had a car accident 20 years ago I could not do nothing for myself and my family took care of me and I said to myself whenever I'm getting better and able to do everything I have to help others who needed help & won't be able to take care of themselves. And because I have compassion for what i do and I tell anyone that who want me to work with a loved one if they don't have enough money to pay I'm willing to negotiate. Because our Father in heaven wants us to care for one another.

I became a caregivers when my grandmother became ill. Seeing progress, seeing faces light up when I walk in thee room, listening to past stories, their past, being able to help keep clients in there home and as much as possible independent. When you meet a client who just wants to give up and that perfect fit cna-comes along and gives that client hope and purpose to keep going. About me: I'm patient, kind and I think first before I react. I away put thee shoe or my foot first to see how it could affect thee other person before anything. I'm a good listener and follow directions as asked or written and I give a 120 percent or more to thee care of my job..
