Skin Disorders Caregivers in Trigg County - 13 caregivers found

What I love most about being a caregiver is building relationships with my clients and helping them with day to day tasks.

I received my CNA certificate after my maternal grandmother was diagnosed with stage 4 terminal breast cancer. Prior to her being placed on hospice I would watch what the nurses were doing and when small things would happen I would take over. Example her if would constantly alarm I watched and learned to reset it if the nurse was busy. After my grandmother was placed on hospice she said to me after me helping to care for her she whispered to me moments before passing "baby doll this is your calling, God has placed you here to care for others please peruse this field". And I did just that. I retained my CNA and worked in various nursing homes and always had an interest in death and dying units. I wanted to make them as comfortable and content as possible. I wanted to be there as much as I could for those who had family place them in nursing homes and never visit. I wanted to be there like family . which led me to the choice being offered to a patient that use to come into the ER routinely. Until family of that patient offered me to take care of him at home until his last days... I worked for a nursing home where we had a husband and wife in separate sections of the nursing home I worked with the husband more frequently than the wife but one morning I arrived at work and heard thru our morning meeting report that the wife had passed and they hadn't told the husband . I offered because I was very close to him . long story short family was not going to make arrangements for him to attend her funeral due to limitations he had ie him being in a wheelchair and then not having access to transportation to get him there. Short staffed at the home I offered on my day off to see to him getting to the funeral home church and grave site. It was hard I pushed him thru areas that were grassy muddy and not meant for travel in a wheel chair but I did it . I put myself in his shoes that did and did whatever it took.

I enjoy working with elderly. I have been in this field most of my life and it simply comes as a second nature for me. I enjoy helping others.

I am an outgoing individual, so it helps me connect with residents easier, I am not just a caregiver, but a friend as well to my residents. I wanted to become a caregiver because when my grandmother was ill I always wanted to help take care of her and assist her. I enjoy helping people who are unable to assist themselves anymore. It makes me feel good knowing I can make a difference in their lives.

I am a very loving person that will treat your family memeber exactly how I would treat my own, with the same love and care. I have such a big heart for those that need help, and especially for working with geriatrics. I love to help others grow and to help themselves and to show care when others haven't.

I am very interested in being a caregiver for one simple fact, I love taking care of people and being there when needed to help. I used to take care of my mother who is now deceased, also a friend of hers when I was young. Ive helped so many people who cannot necessarily take care of themselves as well as they'd like to. I have always, even as a kid, wanted to take care of people. I have two sons of my own whom I care for. I also had a brother who had cerebral palsy and has since passed as well. Its a strong passion of mine to take care of people.

Last year in the pandemic , I had to quit work as something that I love to do and that's helping people, especially the love ones who can't help them self, all because I have a heart disease, and can't work in the facilities. So I decided to become the CEO of this agency and try to help everyone who loves working as a CNA that really care to help and care for others.

I became a caregiver because i enjoy helping others, i feel as if it is my calling. I am proud to say that i have 15 years experience as a certified nurse assistant. I am a hard working mother and wife who enjoys making others smile.

Ever since I was a little girl, I always loved elderly people. How kind and full of wisdom they are. How they always have stories to share. I would of prefered take care of just one person vs multiple, because I love sitting down and having one on one time with individuals learning about what their life was all about, even if we have the same conversation every day because they didn't remember having the conversation the day before. I love listening and gaining friends no matter their age. Getting to know the person I care for and build a relationship means the world to me. After all would you want a stranger that you can't connect with and makes you feel awkward bathing you? I know I wouldn't. I believe to be a caregiver you should be patient, kind, and understanding to each unique situation because everyone is going through a struggle. I fell in love with care giving. I am going to school to be a Registered Nurse to continue my path in helping others.
