About Lindsay

Hi all, My name is Lindsay McShane and I'm a recent graduate from Oregon State University. I majored in kinesiology, minored in psychology, and was a member of the OSU Women's Track and Field team for the past five years. I am a certified nursing assistant and will be heading to nursing school in late October 2021. In the meantime, I have been doing some caregiving for a family friend's 85-year-old father. Seeing how much he values staying in his own home and him getting to remain as independent as possible has inspired me to find more caregiver opportunities. I'm hoping to find some meaningful part-time work that will fit nicely with my schedule. Hopefully I can provide what you or your loved one needs!

My primary concern as a caregiver is to make sure that my client is able to function at the best of their ability and to make sure that they are having the highest quality of life that they are able to have. I am not only there for my client but I am also there for the family (such as: to let them go grocery shopping, are just to be another set of ears at doctor appointments or for the family. After a few days with the client and the family I begin to consider them family. I have a great amount of nurturing and empathy, some say I care to much but I give 150% to my clients and families. I enjoy order and dispensing medication, relating to my clients, enjoy the pass and working on family history. I have no parents or grandparents so my clients kind of fill these roles. I have been a first responder, EMT, CPR Instructor, nurse's aide, and medication aide. My personal achievement that I am most proud of is having a D.N.S. that I work with for a long time trust me to teach new nurse's the medication routine and to be a charge nurse. As a personal care giver the highest praise I can be given is for my client to tell me I must be an angel and that they love me.
