I'm a loving person with a big heart, which is why I absolutely love this job!

I'm a good person, fairly quiet. I respect the clients to the highest and I'm a listener. I like to repeat to them so I fully understand what their need is. My personality allow to treat them like i want to be treated with gentle care and respect.

I am a retired LPN , who now have decided to do one on one care with clients. My skills include all CNA training in addition to physical assessments, wound care, patient teaching, medication administration, geriatrics, pediatrics, medical surgical nursing, and companionship with my clients. I have various references available upon request. I have been in the medical profession for 21 years. I sincerely get satisfaction from caring and taking care of others I feel like I'm making a difference in someone's quality of life,and I like to make people happy. My personal achievement I'm most proud of is earning every single academic achievement award available at my college.Im also really funny, I have a great sense of humor.

At the age of 18 I was introduced to caregiving. I am now 31 years of age and have continued my career path as a caregiver. I originally became a caregiver so that I could go in and care for my elderly disabled cousin when she first moved to my area, however I was never placed with her, but I was hired and placed with other clients and it was almost like second nature to me, I absolutely loved it so that's when I decided to take the caregiving career path. So far it has been a success and I've learned so much and am now able to care for many different types of cases with ease. My skills go beyond caregiving though, I also have worked in an emergency room as an emergency room technician which allowed me to gain more knowledge within the medical part of care. while I was working there, I acquired certifications in BLS/First Aid/AED use, EKG technician, Drug screening and breath alcohol testing, as well as picked up many skills in behavior health, orthopedics, heart care, stroke care, wound care, and so much more. My favorite thing about caregiving is knowing that I am there for those who were there for my generation and knowing that they are in great hands is just a couple of my favorite things about caregiving. Most of all I'd have to say, I absolutely love spending time with my clients and giving them the companionship that they need and deserve so that they do not have to worry about being lonely. The saying is true that people can die from loneliness and its heartbreaking knowing how many people do have to live without anybody in their lives. If I could be there for them all I would. I am always so happy to be in their presence knowing I'm making a difference in that person's life. It is a sense of fulfillment to me as if I am doing exactly what I was destined to do.

I think that the best traits I carry as a caregiver, is that I am patient, and sympathetic as well. I truly care for each and every person I am able to care for. I've always had a passion for the Senior Community, I've always loved their wisdom and looked up to it. Once I got older, I wanted to learn more, and give back to them. The one thing I find most rewarding, and that I enjoy most about being a caregiver, is that I get to help somebody everyday. Whether it's something small, or large. One of my personal achievements that I am proud of is when I was 15 years old, I went to a local small college to go through their CNA program, and while doing so I worked my clinical hours at the local nursing home. There I was exposed to a vast majority of diverse needs, rapidly, and it helped me grow and learn to love this career even more so.

I got into caregiving in 2007. I loved it. Then about 5 years ago I decided to become a certified nurse aide. I worked for Hospice and a couple of other companies as an aide. I recently moved to the area and while I love being an aide I also enjoy being a caregiver.

respecting their loved one's current abilities. Rather than focusing on what their loved one can no longer do, a good caregiver tries be in the moment with them . Spending one on one time with Client. Listening to their stories. Raising my children.

I enjoy getting to help others on a day to day basis
