Post Surgery Recovery Caregivers in Richwoods - 26 caregivers found

i have extensive experience caring for people. i previously ran a 12 person adult care facility, caring for their every need 24hrs a day. i love helping people gain their independence back and assisting them with daily tasks to make them feel more independent.

I spent 11 years in the military in which I was honorably discharged at the end of 2012. I completed and received an associate degree in art while serving. I continued my education while being unemployed from the time I was released from the military until April of 2013 and earned a bachelor degree in psychology. A week later I began practical nursing school and graduated top of my class a year later and was rewarded the leadership award. I passed my state board and earned my Practical Nursing license with an IV certification. I have since worked as an admission nurse, hospice nurse, agency nurse, floor nurse, managed a long term care facility, and was a day shift manager as well as a day shift unit supervisor. I recently completed my associate's degree in science in nursing and am waiting to sit for boards for my registered nursing license. I am looking to slowly transition from the facility setting into private duty helping people in their home setting.

I Hello ! I'm Janet and I've been in nursing for 25 years . I was a CNA for 5 years and have been a CMT for 20 years . I worked as a supervisor of an Assisted Living facility for the last 15 years .I decided to become a caregiver when my father needed end of life care . The girls that took care of my dad made things a lot easier on my father and my family as well..so much so that I decided to become one of those girls ! I love what I do and I treat my clients with respect and dignity . I believe this type of work is more than just a job . I put my heart into what I do !

I love being able to help people that need it i helped my great grandmother for a long time before she passed. I am a loving person an a caring person i can listen well an cheer anyone up.

I want to take a moment to express my passion for caregiving and experience in working with both the elderly and individuals with special needs. Over the past 6 years, I have had the privilege of providing care and support to a diverse range of individuals, including those with dementia and autism. it has been incredibly fulfilling to make a positive impact in their lives and witness their growth and well-being.

I'm a very hardworking person and I have a big heart so when it comes to helping people I feel as tho I'm a good person to rely on. I enjoy putting a smile and making life easier for people who cannot do most things independently.

I have been in this field of care giving for 20+years. I enjoy being sociable, energetic, being kind, sympathetic and always happy to help. I do have alot of patience to provide the best care possible. Safety is most important to me in caring for anyone. I am my 84yr. old mothers caregiver. She lives in my home , I do let her do for herself as much possible. I know it makes her feel good when she can do things for herself. Caregiving is a huge personal accomplishment and puts a smile on my face when I can help another. I have taken care of Alzheimer Patients, Residents with Dementia , Hospice Care, and Stroke Patients. I am very Proud to be in this field and care very deeply for people and always do my very best at caring for your loved ones.

I am one of the most easy going, whole hearted, loving people you will meet. I take full pride in all of my work with my patients/clients, and I have been told by everyone I have cared for that it is my calling. That I have a servants heart. I started caregiving at the age of 19, there was something about it that completely drew me in and once I started there was no stopping because I love it so much. The best things about being a caregiver to me are the smile that lights up the room when I walk in, the happy tears when I doll up a lady after a good shower and make her feel beautiful when she hasn't felt that in a while, and being a part of so many wonderful families that you just cherish those memories for the rest of your life. It's truly a blessing. A personal achievement that I am proud of would be being named Employee of the Year and Month for taking on an entire census of patients by myself when both of my co workers had resigned. It was tough, but I got it done and my whole team through a celebration for me. Being a caregiver has taught me so many wonderful things in life, and I couldn't be more grateful.
