Parkinson's Disease Caregivers in Bradford - 6 caregivers found

I am friendly, experienced and have a diverse experiences working in a caregiving capacity. I love helping people and being of service to others. I'm grateful and honored for each life I have been blessed to care for and those who allow me to be with them until they went home.

I am passionate about caregiving and specialize in patients with special needs, such as dementia and Alzheimers.

I became a caregiver in 2005 not sure of what this job as in store for me. I started the CNA job just so I could get a job anywhere I go. Not knowing that I would meet some wonderful people a long the way. From my residents to my co-workers I have learned that being a caregiver is what I like best about my life. I love taking care of the elderly, they have shown me a lot through the years, I have had some really great people stay with while they have departed the earth. I like to see my residents do a lot of things on their own, with little to no help. To keep their independency, because not only will they tell you that they can do it on their own, they will do things on their own inspite of what you say. I like to think that my residents are my on family, in time they do become my family. The elderly that I have taken care of have made me who I am today. Not only am I their for them I am also there for their family as well, to give them a peace of mind to ensure them they are getting good quality care from me.

I have been a caregiver since I was a child. My dad had polio and my mom had other physical problems so, I became their caregiver. As an adult, I have enjoyed Hospice work, working with dementia patients and working with children. I feel like helping others is what my purpose in life is. I enjoy it and love meeting and learning from new people.

I enjoy working with people and most enjoy jobs where I have one-on-one interaction with others. I enjoyed taking care of elder family members and would like to help others in this way. I like older adults and feel I can get along well with a variety of elders. I like doing work that has the potential to make a difference in someone’s life. I like doing a variety of tasks in a day. I don’t ever say, “that’s not my job” but instead like pitching in to do whatever is needed. I like making someone smile and doing little things to make a person’s day better. I take pride in I pay attention to detail. I don’t want a desk job; I'd like being physical in my job and using my body as well as my brain. I'm seeking a career with growing opportunities. I don’t want to invest in many years of formal education but I'm are willing to learn new skills and take continuing education to do your job well. I feel that when I'm are older, you’d want someone like yourself there to help you if you need help.
