1. Honestly, I became a caregiver not realizing the extent of care that was needed in the field. I observed my mother providing care for my father before he passed, and it was hard for me to see him passing away. Since I have become a caregiver, I understand the quality of care that is needed in order to help rehabilitate those who are dependent upon someone they can trust.
2. In this field,I have learned a lot about myself as a person. I never expected to become educated on the subject of self. I have learned that you should not take life for granted, disabled does not mean that a person is not human and that they want to be treated special because of their disability, how the small things in life mean so much to a person when they are unable to provide for themselves such as: a warm hello, brushing their hair, putting fresh flowers in a vase on the dresser or kitchen table.
3. A personal achievement that makes me proud is that, over the years, I can greet most family members that I have provided care for, and they smile and welcome me with memories of how I touched their lives as a caregiver for their loved ones, or those that I have provided care for to rehabilitate them during their short recovery.
4. What is calming to the mind as a caregiver is, going home that day knowing that you have made a difference in someone else's life. If you never see them again, you can honestly say that you did your best. I have a great sense of humor, and a great personality. My work spe
What makes me a good caregiver is my personality and my work ethic. I am likely to find things to do to keep myself busy and keep my client busy with things they are able to do. I have worked with people with all ranges of abilities and I can easily adapt to new situations. I tend to find the silver lining in situations and my clients like that I am just an overall happy person. I know when to encourage and when to back off as to not exhaust my clients when they are trying to complete an activity. I like having open communication with family members so they can stay up to date on their loved one's progress.
Hello & good day everyone! I'm Brittany, a mother of 2 beautiful boys, step-mom to 2 other beauties, and an army wife of 4 years.
I have been in the nursing field for over a year and enjoy it very much so. I am a honest, open, trustworthy, kind hearted, selfless person. I enjoy helping others and doing what I can to make someone else's day better.
I got into healthcare to know how to take care of my children and family if for any reason anything should go wrong, along with anyone else that I may encounter or come across. I enjoy helping others and making their day better, one person at a time!!
I am a grandmother in my 50's interested in a care/ companion position for an elder female lady. I have been a sitter in hospice with my father and also stayed with three elder ladies for their family members as past experience. I am able to cook to their request and do laundry, vaccum, dust..help bathe and dress, or whatever they need. I also will be looking forward to talking to the client and learning about them and their interests. I live in Eastover, NC but the website would not give me the address with my zipcode. I would like to find a client near me. I am interested in baking, crochet, reading, pets, and learning card games as well.
From the time I graduated high school, I have worked with the elderly. In Kentucky I was a CNA, however when I moved to NC, my CNA didn't transfer. I spent the last four years working as a live in care giver for an gentleman with Dementia. He passed in July, and I got a job with Homeinstead. I see multiple clients, and I am looking for a more one on one consistent caregiving situation. I love to take care of people and help any way I can. I have years of experience and a heart ready to take care of your loved one.
I have a passion to take good care of others. i have never meet a person I couldn't make smile. I would give me all to someone in need. I wanted to start taking care of people because I wanted to know how and learn to save my dads life. I enjoy the smiles on my patients faces and the joy it gives their family members to know that they are safe with me. That I have brought a great deal of joy to others.
I become a caregiving because I love to help people. Its been a passion of mine since I was a lil girl. I am prusuing to become a nurse because I love what I do so much. Just knowing that I can make someones day better by giving them a helping hand puts a smile on my face.
I enjoy helping and fixing people especially people who can't take themselves. I have been in the Patient Care for about 12 years. I was CNA in Florida until I relocated to Fayetteville in 2010. I am scheduled to take the CNA test on 01 Aug 2014.

Working with the elderly for the past 15 yeas in the Health Care Industry I find they hold a world of information through their life`s experiences. I enjoy their company and the ability to make them smile and laugh gives me great personal enjoyment. The ability to provide care is something I hope in the future if needed will come from someone with a caring heart. I am 48 years old and just relocated from Baltimore, MD working for HCR Manor Care ( Activity Assistant) to Fayetteville, NC with the promise of a Activity Assistant job that was filled before I completed my relocation move.
I found my passion when I decided to be a caregiver. It is a rewarding and unique experience. I make a fantastic caregiver because I am passionate and caring! I have worked as an Emergency Medical Technician and a volunteer firefighter as well as a Nursing Assistant. I am proud to have served the community and learn so much about patient care!
I love the elderly. I have been in love with classic movies since I was a teen. Edward G Robinson, Joan Crawford, Barbara Stanwyck just to name a few are my favorite actors. These people lived in that era and they possess a wealth of wisdom. I love listening to them and worked as a certified nursing asst. in a day program for Alzheimer and dementia patients for 4 years..
I left being a care giver for quite some time and ran a successful daycare which was featured on a program called the visionaries on PBS and seen all over the world. I won the home based small business administration award and was asked to say a speech and introduce Hillary Clinton. I recently moved to North Carolina Fort Bragg area after briefly working at the Arturo Shromberg senior citizens center in the Bronx NY. I really made some wonderful connections with the people there. I truly believe that the love and kindness I feel toward the elderly is a direct extension of the love I had for my own mom whom I lost a short while ago and that someday I will reap that kindness when I myself reach my golden years. I want to leave some good memories in the hearts of those I care for!
I am thankful for those years I had helping to train the next generation and have just completed my training for my hha certificate to prepare me once again to work with the elderly. I am just a few credits from completing my associates degree in accounting and then I hope to go on for my bachelor's degree.
I am a trustworthy person with a compassionate heart to meet the needs of others. Very attentive in providing care to the client . I'm also a very dependable and patience person. When I see my clients smiling when I come and when I leave I know my working was not in vain.
