About Edith

My name is Edith, I have been a caregiver for over 25 years. My motto is to always treat the patient as if they were my own family member. I have always been a nurturer, I have 4 kids I am very proud of, all grown up in their own profession. I enjoy being a caregiver because its my way of giving back to the community, I have taken care of many different types of family from all types of backgrounds and they all have one thing in common, and that is they feel good when you treat them like they are still Human, despite the issues they may have. I make sure they feel like they have their independance, someone to talk to and most of all comfort and trust in my presence.

I have an innate sense of selflessness and empathy is embedded in my personality and I am good listener.I am a compassionate, honesty, reliable person that care about people. I have been working in the personal care profession for several years. I decided to become a caregiver because I enjoy providing care to people of different ages. It gives me great satisfaction to know that I am helping someone and this job enables me to make a difference in the daily lives of my clients. My client misplaced her money I helped her to find it and put it in a secure place, she was concern that she would forget where she put her money. She speaks five languages, so I told her choose one of the language and write it down on a piece of paper and put on the refrigerator. She was very grateful that I helped her to solve her problem and I am very proud that I was able to help her.
