Respiratory Disorders Caregivers in Riceville - 18 caregivers found

I am 54 years old. God gave me a gift to help elders, and I love that gift! I have been doing this all my life. I can't express enough how it makes me feel to go home knowing I made them smile, or laugh for that day. I think exercise is very important if they are capable, and Companionship, Honesty, and just having a heart that cares for people. I go above and beyond for my elders, and I will treat them as they were my very own.

Iam a people person who enjoys getting to know others and serving them. I've been doing this for 22 yrs and I believe this is my calling.

I worked with the Visiting Angels Caregiver & Home health group out of Knoxville, Tn for about 2 years as a caregiver. I also helped to care for my mother, father, a sister, a brother, an aunt, an uncle, my husband, and my son. I am retired, but I still enjoy working part time as a caregiver. I can help care for your loved ones, when you need to be engaged elsewhere. Or when you just need an occasional break.... And we all need that occasional break sometimes.

I have been a C.N.A. since 1981 when I was 19 years old. I have always had a "soft spot" for the elderly/sick. I have worked in all areas of healthcare over the years, hospitals, home health, nursing facilities, geri/psych unit, hospice, private duty. I now own my own business, Quality Home Care, a non-medical home care. This is my calling and I am honored to help others in need.

Hello! My name is Tecla. I currently work for a home care company based in Athens, TN, and I am looking for private clients. I love being a caregiver, and I have 5 years of experience. I am professional, reliable, enthusiastic, and I focus on building a strong rapport with each individual I care for. Everyone is unique, and I am very open to doing things differently in order to meet the specific needs of my clients. I see many clients throughout each week, and I even have a few that I check on when I am off the clock. I love people, and I am very blessed and rewarded by every person in my care.

For me it's the joy of caring for elderly. I love working talking, getting to know new people. I have a soft passion for people. Taking care of my parents is what I always wanted to do so they could stay home. Nursing is my happy place.

My name is Rachel Franks I've nursed for 16yrs I from Alabama been here in ten. For 3 yes I love helping others ...

I am very compassionate and loving. I enjoy making people feel better. I enjoy serving others. I have worked in nursing home settings. I know CPR. Proper lifting techniques. And how to take care of people suffering with mental illness or who are unable to get out of bed. I am currently studying holistic medicine and massage therapy. My hobbies are art and education. I love to learn things. Especially anthropological and liguistics. I am not currently fluent in German yet but it is a language i appreciate. It is part of my ancestry. In this line of work i think it helps to understand life from the person in needs point of view. I work to make people as comfortable and encouraged as possible.

My current job does not say much about who I am as a person or a caregiver. Before starting in factory work I worked in a nursing home for 4 years. After the nursing home I worked in assisted living for a year. I gave my heart to those jobs. I loved ever minute of being with the elderly. I started by waking them up and taking them to the toilet. Then I would help them get dressed or dress the ones who were unable. I would then assist with normal morning hygiene care. I would take them to dine with others in the dinning hall and then I would feed the ones who could not go. I would do daily excersizes with the residents and give baths when it came time. After breakfast some would take naps, watch tv or do other things. After my rounds of helping to use the bathroom I would visit with some that I didn't get to spend so much time with because of our morning rush to eat. So many of those people whom I took care of couldn't remember some of their own family, but they knew when they seen me coming everyday and they were so happy at times. At the end of the day helping others comes naturally. My gratitude I get from being a caregiver is just making someone smile. If I can make them smile then I must be doing something well.

I have held many positions in the health field. My reasons for remaining in health care are many but the most prominent is the self gratification of helping others.
