About Sophia

My personality traits that helps me to be a great caregiver is that I am a very compassionate person, I'm very empathetic, I'm patient, I'm loving, I'm kind, I'm caring and most of all I care for my clients from my heart. Years ago I had the opportunity of caring for my child who was born with a rare generic disorder that causes me to work closely alongside nurses and doctors. As I watched them cared for my son, I learned and developed a lot of skills associated with his care. I became very involved and from there I developed a different type of personality traits and expertise. After my sons passing I realize that I could make a difference in someone else's life and I choose Geriatric because I felt pediatric would be a little bit difficult for me to handle. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is that I am able to help someone who cannot help themselves and to have a positive look at life each and every day that I'm caring for them. My personal achievement that I'm proud of is that my clients are very happy to have me as their caregiver.

My expertise in caring for the aged is my patience,love,empathy,trustworthliness and flexibility makes me stand out in this field of care. My grandmother inspires me to be a great caregiver. When she was sick, i accompany her to the hospital,wash her clothes,cook for her and made sure im there when she needed me. The excitement and joy she had on her face when im with her makes me proud that at least i made her happy before she died. When caring for the aged i have the empathy because i feel like caring for my grandmother and to make someone feel happy means me feel good that my grandmother will be happy wherever she is. Being a caregiver is full of ups and downs but it has a great influence on my relationship with others. When a loved one whether they are of a sound mind or not deserve to be treated with love,needs attention and this is a priceless gift
