My name is Tanautica Searcy. I have 6 years of experience in caregiving. I am very outgoing. I love working in the medical field. I love helping others. I love seeing the progress that my patients make with my help. I take care of my clients and patient as if it was one of my family members. I go above and beyond for my clients. Helping people is always been something that I loved to do and knowing that I cared for my clients or patients to my full ability makes my heart smile. I recently took a small course and became a behavior technician.

I'm very attentive to my clients. I feel it's my calling to take care of those that can't take care of themselves. I have been doing this line of work for over 30 years. My clients have grown to love me and treat me like family as I have the same for them. I enjoy what I do and it shows in the care I provide. I love to laugh and make them smile and I have always been told that I have that gift..

Hello! My name is Jess,I have been working as a caregiver for 2 years. Here's a little insight about me and how I gained my experience. When I was a teen my mother in law was a nurse aide. I've looked up to her and admired how much people she helped everyday with her kind touch. Let's fast forward to when I graduated high school, I've always known I wanted to help people and with the work that I've watch my mother in law do,it inspired me to become a nurse aide. I had absolutely no clue where to start! Later I ended up getting my first gig helping a man with leukemia shortly after he passed I still stuck around and helped his wife with ADL Later I joined a care agency as a caregiver (FirstLightHomeCare) I've been to multiple peoples homes and facilities providing the best care I could possibly do. After being to one particular facility(abbotswood at irving park) I absolutely fell in love with the patients there, but due to rules and with the agency I was with I couldn't join them just yet. I ended up leaving my agency and joining a nursing home(Terrabella formerly known as Brighton Gardens) to gain more experience. There I earned my PCA and worked in the assisted living. Later down the line I realized I wanted to try something new, so I ended up moving to the memory care. There I tended to patients with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. After about a year of being with Brighton Gardens I decided to move on and further my education so I got my CNA with AIM medical training college. I got hired at my dream job and where I had fallen in love with my patients (abbotswood at irving park) there I became a Med Tech. I work closely with doctors and nurses and provide wound care as well. I have knowledge and understanding of certain medications. I also work closely with Hospice patients. I enjoy every second of the time I have with my patients and treat them with respect as if they were my own grandparent. I enjoy nurturing others and making sure they get the best possible care.

Love working with the elderly population.

I'm ver passionate about caregiving .. I enjoy what I do

I have been caring often on for the past 30 years for my mother,who is disabled. I enjoy helping people, it gives me a great feeling knowing that I can help with people's families can't be there. I have previous experience with schizophrenic and also dementia

I am a cheerful, engaging, understanding, positive and loving individual. I have a great heart of compassion, empathy and love to help those in need. It warms my heart to know that I am able to add joy, comfort and a sense of peace in individuals lives that I care for. I have been in the healthcare field for 16 years, I have been blessed with a special gift of being a natural nurturer. When I was 14 years old I helped my mom care for my grandmother who was paralyzed and nonverbal, she required total care. That experience was my introduction into the healthcare field. Just as in my first experience, today I still get a rewarding feeling to know that I am able to have a positive impact in the lives of those who are in need. In my personal journey I've learned it's not about finding myself, it's about creating who I'm designed to be.
