Respiratory Disorders Caregivers in Fort Dodge - 4 caregivers found

I have been a caregiver for 28 years. I am able to adapt to a variety of care settings. I love watching people grow and feel confident in their daily skills. I have met hundreds of people over my 28 years of providing occupational therapy and love getting to know each of their stories.

At first I am quiet, but I open up quickly, and enjoy getting to know new people. I always knew I wanted a career of working with people, but as I quickly learned at my last job, caregjving is truly a rewardimg job. It is so much mkre than a job to me, as you are walking into someones home, and into someones life. I became interested in caregiving, after I cared for my grandmother after she had her leg amputated. I was in high school, but spending that summer helping her impacted me greatly and I knew how I could help people as a future career. I enjoy the bond established between a regular caregiver and a client the most, it is such a warm and loving relationship. It almost feels life family, but still professional as caregiving is a job, and that is why it takes a special kind of love go be a caregiver. Your not caring for your family, but your caring for someomes loved one. And your able to provide peace of mind to your clients family, that their loved one is safe. A little each about me, a personal achievement I am proud of is becoming a first time homeowner in October of 2020, and being able to raise my family in a home that I know I worked so hard for.

I am great with people. I'm very understanding of their needs. I listen closely to what they are saying. I'm funny, I love seeing and hearing an elder laugh and be happy. What attracted me to being a caregiver is ever since I was a little I would help my grandpa every time I went to his house, and it always brought me enjoy, so since then I was always wanted to help and take care of my elders. It brings me joy. I enjoy helping my elders, and spending time with them, and getting to know them, and listen to all of their stories about their journeys they experienced throughout their life. I'm proud of being a caregiver, and giving back, and helping them.
