First off, I would like to say that I very much have a heart for the elderly. I love engaging with them in conversation, and find myself drawn to caring for them. I sense that they quickly feel comfortable with me. Generally speaking, I am a very patient and compassionate person who can sense what is going on in the heart of another. I very much enjoy the process of getting to know somebody and finding out how I can best help them. As a nurse assistant, I'm very attentive, detail oriented, and enjoy organizing and planning. It would be my pleasure to discuss my work experience with you and see if I could be a good fit in assisting you with your needs. ~ God bless

I have worked with different clients and I have worked at a facility, adult family home, and one on one care. Caregiver is a great job that helps me to meet with different people and see the world in a different way. Being able to help another person is what I always wanted since I was young. Being a caregiver gives me an understanding of what other people go through. I even decided to pursue my education in public health because I wanted to learn different ways to help people. I have been a caregiver for almost 3 years now and I love it.

I have been doing this kind of work for about 40 years, l am a self starter, enjoy working with people.

I have had a lifelong love for taking care of seniors since I was 12 years old. I volunteered at my hometown nursing home. I now have 8 years of professional experience providing care for seniors.

I am a college student at Eastern Washington University, currently pursuing my major in nursing and minored in psychology. I am people oriented and easy to carry conversations with, on the daily. My home town is in Maui, Hawaii, as of right now Spokane, Washington is where I call home.

Living with people and supporting each other gives life a meaning. This is why I became a care provider. 3 years as a live in care giver has equipped with knowledge of dealing with challenges faced by elderly people and those with needs within our community which require a helping hand. Simple achievements like understanding a person at a certain age or condition can not hold a big glass and drink enough water comfortably or during the pandemic while family members could not visit their loved ones setting up video calls and guiding them how to communicate with new technology brings joy and satisfaction to all. Although it started as a job now it's a way of life being that shoulder to lean on.

I'd describe my personality as energetic, helpful, and activity oriented. I started working with kids when I was a teenager, I was a cabin leader at the summer camp I'd grown up going to. In my spare time, I like to use my kayak and bake all sorts of goodies. One thing you should know about me is that I'm a mover, if there's an activity or something to go do then I'd much rather do that then screens.

I am a very personable person I've always worked in retail because I loved the person to person interaction. I've always been able to get along with most people because I could read and pickup on their personality and that helped me better understand them as a person. I got attracted to caregiving because I wanted to give more to those around me. I believe that everyone who need assistance should get the help they deserve because there's so much negativity out there, there needs to be more positivity and kindness. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is getting to provide that comfort that other need and making them feel at ease because they aren't alone. A personal achievement in pound of is going to trade school to become more knowledgeable about how to help others i never likes school not because of the learning though it was more the teachers and other student and how you were ranked as a person by a grade in the grade book so I never thought I'd go back to school after high school until I found my path to caregiving I was actually passionate about it and excited to be going back to school and learning about something I was interested in so it was a proud moment for me ,

I am very compassionate. I treat every person with respect. I feel every person deserves to live the best life for them possible and my passion is to make that happen.
