About Taiwo

I'm the only female child of my parents. In my country Nigeria, we believe very much in personal care of our aged relations. My care-giving experience started in 1985 in my country, (I was 21). My mom had a major surgery and couldn't care for her 89-year-old mother, so I moved from home to be with my grand mom in the village. I took care of all her till she passed on to glory at the age of 92. l also took care of my mom till she passed on at the age of 90. Here in the USA, I started full time 37.5 hours a week job as a caregiver at an Assisted Living facility in North East Portland OR for 12 months and l also worked as a Home Health Aide on part time for 6 months. I later went back to class for the Nursing Assistant program and later sat for the Oregon State Board of Nursing test and passed and became a Certified Nursing Assistant. Since then, I've worked as a full time and part time CNA at a Post Acute Rehab facilities across the state of Oregon . I went back to class again to get more skills in my career and presently l have my CNA 2.

I am a compassionate woman. I believe maintaining dignity and respect for all people. Especially, to those who cannot be as independent as they want to be. From personal experience, life can be forever changed in a second. I encourage independence when applicable and respectfully take charge of personal care. Every person is unique and their situation is equally unique. I avoid combative situations using distraction instead of response. I strongly protect every person's right to dignity, respect, love, compassion and PRIVACY! I am CPR certified. I am also a Chef who can cook, bake and decorate a cake for special occasions. Loneliness and isolation I respond with kindness and humor. As of 4/18/2021 Covid vaccine completed. Covid compliant.
