About Tonya

I feel most satisfied in doing my job when the ones I am caring for feel safe with me. There is something about making someone else feel better that I cannot put into words. My recent experiences have been fulfilling and rewarding for myself, and the client. I pride myself on not only being on time for work but usually a bit early. I take pride in doing my job well and safely. My goal is to provide the best care when, where, and the way it is wanted and deserved. Because I usually take the initiative, the client and the family is put at ease rapidly. I am trustworthy and reliable (and a pretty decent cook, if I might add:) I am strong and energetic. I like the outdoors, walking, sports, and reading. I am a caregiver you would be very satisfied with ( I'm speaking from previous experiences:)) I am dedicated to my clients and their welfare. If you want a caretaker that is there to provide care and not use personal electronic devices while on the job, I am that one. (757) 597-4380, Morrisville, NC. Willing to relocate for right opportunity. I am confident in my abilities to care for you or your loved ones professionally, safely, and compassionately. Other skills include being empathetic, listening, good communication, and transportation. I also possess working knowledge of sanitation, personal hygiene and basic health and safety precautions applicable to work in a hospital setting; working knowledge of infection control procedures and universal safety precautions.

    am dependable and compassionate caregiver, quick learner and able to follow directions. I have worked in Medical Field for over 10 yrs, worked in homes, facilities, hospitals and group homes. In the past, I have assisted clients with their activities of daily living, companionship, recording intake and outputs, recording vitals signs, experience in using hospital equipment like Hoyer Lifts, and Stand Lifts. I also assisted with light house keeping, grocery and laundry. I try to connect with my clients by spending time with them, going for walks, taking them to appointments. when necessary, I am great caregiver because I have been in this field for a long time and I have enough experience, I treat client client like my own family, and I have enough skills to benefit my client.
