Parkinson's Disease Caregivers in Fairhaven - 88 caregivers found

I never know what to write when it comes to this part. Most people say I'm happy go lucky, I have a quirky sense of humour. I guess I would have to my step mom introduced me to the field, She was a nurse in a long term care facility, they were short handed and needed help. Needless to say I was very young and didn't last long. As I got older and became a single parent I needed work and it just seemed like the natural thing to do, to become a caregiver to others outside of my children. I believe my greatest joy in doing this job is helping others and making a difference in their lives, even if it's just making a snack or a meal, or shaving a face or combing hair. Sometimes is the smallest thing that make the biggest difference for someone. I would have to saY my personal achievement I'm most proud of is raising my children alone to adulthood, to be respectful, productive adults. Now helping to raise my youngest grandson.

Caring,reliable,respectful,understanding and giving. Love Caring for people in need. Seeing the person I'm Caring for happy. Seeing my children accomplishments.

Hi, name is Robert. I first got my PCA in 1984. I took care of a completely disabled man in a wheelchair. Lifts were all manual and showers, bowel movement with a Fleet was continuous for the 3 yrs l worked with him. I took him where ever he wanted to go, Beach, Dr.'s, Park, Patriots Football Games, Concerts. I have been working since then with the disabled, psychiatric disabled, physically disabled, Drug Rehabilitation. My mind is to be with those in their struggles and try to keep everybody in a positive atmosphere...

I've been a CNA since 1999. I enjoy helping people. I'm patient and a good listener.

I have always put my patient's first when caring for them. I'm a people person. Treating my patients respect and dignity. Keeping them safe. I worked in a nursing home for several years. I feel as though anyone with nursing home training has excellent skills due to working with nurses. I enjoy getting to know my patients history. I worked for VNA as a CNA/ HHA. I was promoted to Field Assistant. I was responsible for 26 aides to help them with difficult clients and trouble shoot problems!

I'm 28 years old Portuguese & capeverdean. Mother of two boys one diagnosed with autism. Very outgoing, friendly, respectful person. I love caring for people that are in need, it is a passion of mine knowing I'm able to help and make someone happy and comfort them.

My name is Kimberly Manapalli , and I am a cna/hha. I have been in this field for almost 5 years and i have dealt with all different kinds of clients, from dementia (combative ones and non-combative), ones who needs assistance with walking, bedbound, hospice care, independent etc. I am very competent, reliable, hardworking, empathetic, easy going. You can trust me with your loved one and know that they will be safe and well taken care of. I care, because i put myself in someone else's shoe knowing that that could be a family member of mine in someone else's care

I'm a compassionate person who works to the best of my abilities to help those who can't any longer do much for themselves even if it's just for companionship to talk to and listen .!!

I have been a caregiver for over 30 years. I began as a teenager in nursing homes but found in home care when I was a personal trainer. I was training a client in her home and it was then that I decided I wanted to spend more time helping the elderly remain in their homes. I am very easy going but I'm a a great worker. I do my best to help each individual maintain their dignity and respect while maintaining as much independence as possible. I enjoy the fact that people are comfortable with me at a time when someone must come into their environment which has been sacred to them for so long. It's not easy but I think I make it a bit easier.

My name is Deanna I am 34 years of age with no children. What attracted the most to look into this field and to sign me up for CNA school was for my grandparents that I was very close to and who raised me so I did it for them! Because unfortunately, my grandmother was in a nursing home and she was very neglected to the point. Some thing happened to her and she passed away so she gave me my motivation to be where I'm at today. I'm a very compassionate person very honest the most outright patience I have for people is incredible always in a positive mood And I've always wanted to take care of others who don't have others to take care of them. That's why I became a CNA and a caregiver because I give my 100%. I'm a very thorough worker. I'm very organized I have a routine and I get along with everybody, but if I have a tough client who is behavioral that intrigues me more to stay in the field that I am in only because I know how to approach those clients in the correct manner. My personal traits are attachment to the people I care for because not only do I care for them but at the end of the day, somehow they turn family to me in my eyes. I'm a very experienced worker. I've been doing this for six years. I have dealt with all different kinds of patients, so no need to worry. And I'm also very knowledgeable to medical terminologies. I'm a safe, reliable, trustworthy person and I'm very compassionate at what I do and because I love what I do.
