Neurological Disorders Caregivers in Randolph - 7 caregivers found

When someone I am caring for is successful in achieving a goal, that spells success for everyone. I have believed that giving a handup to people who need one is why I'm here and spent most of my working life doing just that. I've been fortunate and believe in giving back, in brief I am client centered. Knowing that some people need a "life coach" to help them achieve a goal, that's what I do. I'm very proud to share a story about a young woman who met "the love of her life" on line. He was from another state, and between her guardian and myself we helped fill in the details and she got to take her first flight to meet her young man who now lives in Vermont and will someday become this young woman's husband.

Been a diabetic since 5 I've had people helping me when I couldn't help my self and now it's my turn! I've been a LNA since 2013! I love helping others!

Enjoy seeing people achieve all they can. Enjoy visiting with people and helping accomplish tasks most rewarding.

I'm a great caregiver because I listen well and enjoy hearing people's life stories. For some reason I find it easier to relate to the older generations than I do to my own. Last night I invited my sisters family of 6 over for dinner and my nephew said it was a ten out of ten!

I genuinely care about people of all ages and they are able to recognize my level of compassion right away. I have given care to several elderly people within the last few years, and I love to listen to their stories. They have wisdom that can only be gained by living a long life, so it is quite fascinating to me to learn from them by listening to them. Even though a few clients have been quite grumpy with other caregivers, I am often able to bring out their sense of humor by making it all about them--doing things they like and want to do. I have also worked with several disabled adults and children, so my degree in education comes in handy helping them learn new ways to do things. My background in psychology also comes in handy, because it gives me a way to understand the emotional ups and downs of being elderly and/or different abilities. I am also a very patient person when it comes to working with people with special needs. I do not automatically do things for my clients if they can do it for themselves, because often the task will allow them a form of physical therapy. I am very adept at giving praise and encouragement for keeping active and busy. I get as much out of being a caregiver as I do giving, because it helps me to feel good about myself.

I've been a caregiver since I was 18 years old. I took care of people with special needs. I started nursing school when I was 20 years old. I graduated when I was 24 years old. I was a nurse for 15 years and then my grandmother got sick and I became her caregiver. I believe a caregiver is there to do anything for the person that they care for. Anything to put a smile on their face. I've taken care of babies with trachs. I've taken care of seniors with dementia. And I've also learned that you take care of the person and the family.

I became a caregiver because I love making people smile and laugh! As a caregiver, I am able to spend one on one time with each client, and structure my time to meet their needs. I have worked as an LNA for over 16 years!! I also, took a phlebeotomy course, worked with clients with trachs, blind and deaf clients, dementia/alth clients, activity asst and a rehab tech also in the past!! My two children are my life!!! when I am not at work we are outdoors enjoying the weather!
