About Ruth

Am fully Vaccinated with a car and an active insurance . For two years I've enjoyed working with the elderly as well as with people with developmental disabilities; because through them, I've been able to acquire great skills such as being a good listener, good communication skills, kindness, emphatic, reliable, honest, patient, compassionate, calm under pressure, being positive for them and the importance of personal dignity and privacy. In addition to my training as a health care aide and as a certified nursing assistant these has also greatly boosted my skills and qualities of becoming a great caregiver!

I started of in the caregiving field with taking care of my grandfather. In the process I got to learn a lot and I did enjoy doing it. I treat every client like my own family with love and compassion. Every client had different needs, so I get to understand the client first and foremost. I mostly enjoy the learning process in caregiving, no matter how long one has been a caregiver, we get to learn new things every time. I once had a client who had dementia (late stage), who did not want to go to bed (it was late at night). One thing that the client enjoyed was watching animal documentaries . I showed the client pictures of different animals that I had taken when I went to Kenya and the client calmed down and I was able to redirect the client to bed. My patience with the client helped me assure the client that I was on her side. This scenario really made me proud of the caregiver that I'm becoming. I love what I do.
