Post Surgery Recovery Caregivers in Lindsay - 20 caregivers found

My journey into Home Health, Hospice and Caregiving started unexpectedly and quite personally. My then 16-year old daughter was diagnosed with a very rare malignant brain tumor. Fast forward 21 years. Although I enjoyed a very successful career as an IT Consultant, it was not emotionally satisfying. I am a caregiver at heart. I have cared for a young woman, now a young adult since her diagnosis with muscular dystrophy as a child. This is on an as-needed basis and she now enjoys independence in her own home. Working with my elderly families has been extremely rewarding. And caring for someone in their final season of life is something God put me on this earth to do. I raise an amazing teen granddaughter and she keeps me young at heart. Her love for pets keeps me on my toes with her two dogs, one cat and Waldo - her turtle. I am enrolling in the WINGS program and will receive my Certified Nursing Assistant(CNA)/Home Health Aide Certification in fall of 2020. This will be immediately followed by their Medication Management Certification program. Although I have performed in these roles and more for two decades, I have only recently decided to accomplish these Certifications. *Note, Any overnight, weekend or holiday shifts will be on an exception basis only*

Hello! My name is Krystal! I am 27, I have two children! I have been a caregiver since childhood, it just came natural. My uncle was handicapped, and a slight medical miracle, his continuing life surprising us every day. I spent my childhood taking care of him with family. At age 6, my cousin was in a car accident and left a quadriplegic with a severe wound in his stomach that required a wound vac, a halo, and several tubes and IV's. Carefully, I always helped with almost all of his care needed. My mother managed the Alzheimer's unit in a nursing home, I spent almost every day there after school. My passion only grew. I started CNA classes in 2010 in high school, finished in 2012 and started work in my local nursing home soon after. I've continued to work my way up, and had dreams of being a pediatric surgeon, but my children and seeing them grow up was more important than my career. I need to be here for all of their small moments. I've been working from home lately, and while I feel my current job does have a purpose, I would love to be back out there, actually caring for my people face to face. I miss the interactions and connections I build with them and their families.

After nursing school, I worked @ nursing facility . I enjoyed very much caring for the elderly. After 10yrs, working I decided, to do private,work. I'm dependable trust worthy,& honest punctual. I care very much about my professional I have worked as a caregiver for 15 to 20 years.

Each patient becomes my top priority. Their individual needs are evaluated and using my expertise from years of training, I develop relationships that make patients feel safe, secure, and well taken care of. I go over and beyond to see patient improvements each day. Sometimes this requires working with assigned medical staff to give them my care plan. i feel honored to be able to help and assist others. My compassionate nature and my love to help others drew me to this line of work. i believe it is a very important job and its also rewarding to serve the elderly and disabled.

I have been told by everyone I have ever cared for and their families that I am a very positive and energetic person. I have been a caregiver for about 10 years and love what I do. I love being there and helping people when they need it the most, it gives me better self-esteem being wanted and needed.

I'm a mother of two boys, a wife, and a Christian. I love taking care of others I've been doing this kind of work since 2011, I'm also a cosmetologist I love making people feel better

Why I love doing what I do so much, is because I believe that we all should be treated the way we would wanted be treated I take every day that I get to speed with this people as a treasure. I'm not saying I'm perfect but I try my very hardest every single day to do my very best at helping and taking care of theses wonderful people. I take great pride in being someone people can depend on. I have been taking care of people my whole life from my brothers to my grandparents, ever since I was a child I wanted nothing but to help others, to let this part of there life to be the easiest and happiest times.

Since I can remember I have always cared for others and took care of those around me. By age 13 I was living and caring for my Type One Diabetic Granny. She was a retired RN, my mom was a RN, and my Aunt is a RN. It was my goal to follow in the same footsteps as the woman in my life. Unfortunately I never got my RN degree and started my family instead. However, I graduated High school a certified CNA and HHA after attending Francis Tuttle Vo-tech my Junior and Senior year of High School. I am a very energetic and easy to get along with person. My mother always said, "I never met a stranger." I am a 6 ft tall female so naturally I was expected to play basketball. I attended basketball camp one year because all my friends were not cause I cared about playing. I came home with every girls phone numbers from the camp and a plaque for " Miss Congeniality." They specially had made for me because I had no interest in the game but they wanted to recognize me because they had never seen a girl that absolutely got along with every girl and and staff member there before. I get a sense of enjoyment from caring for those who cannot care for themselves and was raised to respect others around me, especially those older and wiser than me no matter what.

I worked in a nursing home before moving to Oklahoma as a cna and I would still like to help individuals in need. As of right now I work three days a week. Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. The rest of the week I'm available to help where I'm needed.
