Neurological Disorders Caregivers in Waukesha County - 149 caregivers found

I am presently a Restorative Aide (CNA) at the Lutheran Home on North Ave in Milwaukee. Previously, I was a CNA at the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center, in the SCI/D wing (spinal cord injury/disorder). I left in search of a more balanced work environment. Additional duties (ones I don't have listed), can definitely be negotiated! I obtained my CNA the start of August 2021. I grew up with my own Grandmother telling me to stop hovering and go offer help to someone who needed it...she also frequently told me, until the day she passed, "Sarah, you would be good working with people, especially like me". I'm guessing she was referring to my patience, helpfulness, and understanding, especially working with "an old gal like her (Grandma's words, not mine). The elderly/frail population is the most I have worked with, but I'm by far not limiting myself to this population only! I have worked with clients with the following diseases/disorders/afflictions: Multiple Sclerosis Parkinson's Disease Various other neurodegenerative diseases COPD Injury to the spine at various levels Missing limb or parts of limb Different stages of Alzheimer's and general dementia Helping with recovery from a stroke at home RA Clients at various stages of cancer treatment And many more specific cases, too numeral to properly list here. Please ask about specific skills you require for proper care of your loved one! I don't have all skills/experiences listed, but I have been in the field of caring for over five years now and I love it! I have found my career niche in the work world! Thank you for your consideration, four professional references may be supplied upon request. Be happy, smile, and stay safe and healthy! Cheers! Sarah T.

I have over five years of experience working in this field. Before that I always had a passion to assist ones who couldn't do for their self so I volunteer at group homes for three years. I went and got my CBRF certificate later and I'm going continue farther my education in this profession.

I am a Certified Nursing Assistant. I have been a CNA for a little over 13yrs now. I started off helping to care for my great grandmother, who suffered from Alzheimers Disease, 15yrs ago and i have been doing it every since. I love being able to help others out and that includes both my patients and their families. I've learned that doing the smallest things for people can make their whole day, sometimes their whole life, better. There id nothing more rewarding to me than knowing I've help to make some one a little more comfortable or I've helped give someone a little piece of mind. I know that aging and disabilities take a huge toll on not just the patient but the families also. I love what i do and it gives me peace of mind, to be able to give others a peace of mind and it makes me happy to know i affect so many peoples lives.

Patience and flexibility are qualities that every person in the caregiving industry must possess. There'll be many hurdles along the way-the patient is being stubborn and uncooperative, the schedule doesn't go as planned, or difficult situations arise. A caregiver who is very rigid will find it challenging to deal with these circumstances in a positive way.

My name is renesha I'm a hard working person very devoted to my job I love helping others and making others happy .

Caring for others, have always been a passion of mine, when I was well off in my younger years, I learned a thing or two from my mother. Growing up, seeing her hardwork and compassion for the elderly, drove my desire to do the same. Making sure the one you care for, feels like family, someone is truly there to provide their essential/vital needs and most importantly, loved.

I'm very compassionate and very patient and I believe those are the best traits to have within this line of work. I've always wanted to become a caregiver because of my mother. Just growing up watching her influenced me. Building relationships with my clients influences me the most because I love knowing I'm providing a service that many may need & that they are thankful for. My favorite achievement is sticking to my job everytime. This is not a easy line of work and you have to have a passion for actually taking care of someone.
