About Antonia

I take people very seriously. I'm patient, caring, have a natural nurturing spirit. I currently work in a hospital as a Personal care associate and all my patients ask if I work privately. I don't rush the care of my patients, I'm good at assessing needs before they become one. I cook and clean. I don't degrade or belittle the people I'm caring for. At some point we all need help, when may vary from person to person, but I treat people how I would want my family members to be cared for and how I hope to be treated should the time come for myself.

I know how to empathize, how to be patient and flexible, how to be passionate about what he or she does. I am attentive and responds to situations in a timely manner, and I put the needs of his or her patient first, and am able to take charge when necessary, I am honest and trustworthy. I enjoyed taking care of elder family members and would like to help others in this way. I like older adults and I feel I can get along well with a variety of elders. I learned everything I can, I get creative when I have to, and I do my best. Caregiving is a huge personal accomplishment.
