I love to make people smile. Caregiving became my passion around the age of 12. My mother who is an RN, opened her first home care business. The rest was history as they say! Hearing the stories from the past, life lessons, experiences from people who were light years ahead of me. It's been a joy getting to know different cultures & views. My passion is helping those who can't help themselves. A majority of the people I take care of are veterans. I wouldn't have it any other way! Sacrificing for the people who have done for the same for us is nothing less than an honor. My proudest achievement would be that people remember me & ask for me even when my work with them is done. Even though I've been employee of the month multiple times. Nothing compares to hearing from your residents mouth that they appreciate you for all you do.

I have over 10 years experience. I worked with one client 10 years.I enjoy helping seniors, so they can stay in their home. Seniors have so much experiences and stories to share. I took the CNA training so that I could be able to help my parents as they got older. After the training, I found that I enjoyed it, and started working for pay. I started out helping someone, who recently had hip-replacement. Later I helped this same client through recovery from open-heart surgery. This client had no family, so I went to the hospital to check on them. I coordinated their needs at the nursing home and at home. I am dependable, trustworthy, punctual, caring, and loving. One of my passions is gardening and cooking, I enjoy sharing my talents with my clients. As I worked with clients, they shared with their friends and family how I was.

My names Sarah Merchant, Below you'll find some information to become better acquainted with me, along with links to my resume and certifications. I Received my CNA in Pittsburgh, PA., & spent the next several years working in facilities, in-home health and acute rehab's. Through those experiences I learned an overwhelming amount about patient care. I'm currently in the process of applying and testing to receive my CNA in Florida, where I've called home the past 13 years. I'm a certified HHA & former CNA Utilizing a proactive approach, along with Decisive and Knowledge-Based Judgments to provide your loved one with empathic, altruistic, attentive, & diligent patient care. Since working in facilities, & in home health, it has been my experience that patient care is about so much more than ADL's. Yes, Walking, feeding, dressing, grooming, Toileting, bathing, & transferring are pertinent requirements when living independently. To a greater degree, IADL's are key to managing independence. Managing finances, transportation, medications, communications, house cleaning & home maintenance are key. However, When looking at tasks of daily living, one thing that can't be taught is companionship. It only comes with experience. You can live independently, but without a gentle touch, relationships or conversation, emotional well-being & ones sense of self purpose is lost. It also has a profound effect on a patients health, & state of mind. Its impractical to make a positive impact or change without them feeling emotionally and physically safe. Besides providing patient care, my main focus is to make sure your loved ones health, daily tasks and emotional needs are met.
