Post Surgery Recovery Caregivers in Melbourne - 4 caregivers found

I am a woman with a lovely heart. I love to assist elderly/disabilities. I want to see them happy. I worked as a caregiver for 8yrs and 10 yrs as a direct support professional.

A personality trait that has helped me become a great caregiver is patience. As a young teen I got to see caregiving first hand. My mother (a nurse ) , care for my great aunt and great grandmother. Watching her care for them and the manny ways they embraced her is the very reason I love what I do ! Personally the thing that I enjoy most about caregiving is the companionship and wonderful stories. Meeting new people and seeing life from their point of view . I love the fact that I'm helping someone continue to live life independently no matter the circumstances. One personal achievement I am proud of is that I recently decided to go back to school online to further my education. I'd say it's going pretty great

My name is kristina and ive been a caregiver for just over 8 years. I have worked with a range of different people including children and adults. Ive did Alzheimer's and dementia and trachs and vents. Ive worked with feeding tubes and bearthing machines as well. I first became interested in caregiving when i was a kid. I watched my mom be a cna for 18years before becoming a nurse. I love helping others and making then feel special in their day to day life. I am a hard working single mother of 4 looking to make a big life change and come to Arizona from iowa so that the father of my children can help raise them. Im currently lookin for jobs so that i have something lined up before arriving. I am very flexible and wil consider offers for overnights and days but not 2-10 as i have children in school and i tried 2-10 but i never got to see my littles. I love being a cna and i cant wait to start nursing school!

It is my belief that all ppl regardless of their need are intitled to the best care possible for a full recovery or in many cases a private transition into their life's end journey...dignity and respect. Being a caregiver is one of life's rewards, those needing care are greatful and I would hope that if I need care someday I would have someone like myself. As far as achievements thus far is helping extended families learn and understand what their loved one may not be able to express to them. Keeping clients on track even if they don't have improvement ...giveing tools to live life out the best way possible with encouragement.
