Palliative Care Caregivers in Madison County - 4 caregivers found

I have been working as a CNA for 10years. I' m very caring, campssion, empsthy and a people person.

I'm great with people. Caring, outgoing, patient, and a great care provider.

What makes me a GREAT caregiver is the love and compassion that I have for the elderly. I've been a caregiver since I was about 16 yrs. Old taking care of my grandparents and various family members. I enjoy the smiles and laughter that I put on my clients face, I also enjoy being able to help someone to be able to stay in their own home versus a facility. My personal achievements are helping someone get better, and helping them to recover or get to a better place as far as procession to a better state even if it's a small accomplishment.

I have a very easy going personality and that has helped me feel comfortable when I am with families and clients who come from all walks of life. I first became a caregiver while working at Shands hospital in Gainesville Florida, I saw a huge need with my patients who wanted to be at home but was unable to be alone and was also not ready for a nursing home. I would help them get set with equipment needed in their homes and help take care of them until they no longer needed assistance or the majority of the time until they passed away. This lead me to meeting nurses and doctors who would recommend me to other clients and that is how my business started. I have traveled with clients when they are unable to travel without assistance. I would travel with them to visit family or maybe a second home they own and other times just because they wanted a vacation. I have experience with making reservations when traveling, setting up clinic visits if the client has medical needs that would need to be addressed while on vacation. I feel like this is my calling in life and feel so blessed I am able to help others stay in their homes or facilities and be happy and healthy for as long as possible.
