Hello. I have been a caregiver in Oakmont, an adult community in Santa Rosa since June 2015. I have worked with clients who suffered strokes, falls, dementia, cancer, back surgeries and just about everything in between. Any one of these families would happily give me an excellent reference-- so please do check my references. Prior to Oakmont, I worked for different hospices in Walnut Creek and San Luis Obispo while raising my family. I genuinely enjoy working with clients in their final stages of life. They have taught me so much about how to live fully despite the inevitable limitations of aging. Some days are better than others for all of us. On the tougher days, I try to keep everyone focused on appreciating the here and now. I also like to keep clients active both physically and mentally, if possible. I enjoy preparing meals loaded with fresh fruits and greens and I make a mean stew too.

I'd say what makes me a good caregiver is my compassion for others & Positive demeanor. What sets me out from most would definitely be dedication & patience. When your doing something you love to do it really makes work not feel like a job & that's why I'm a caregiver. Giving someone the help they need is something we all deserve. The way I see it is -if providing my help was the least I did, then id enjoy the rest of my life knowing I made a difference. Really, It's a win- win situation!!!

The personality traits and expertise that help me to become to be a great caregiver, are that I'm empathetic very passionate about the work that I'm a people person and making sure that people are happy. Making sure my individual clients needs are being met is a high-priority for me. What is attracted me to be coming a caregiver is that I come from a long line of nurses and and care providers, being a care providerit is been a family tradition.that entails that we lovingly take care of our elderly at home and so this is just part of my heritage that's been passed down from generation to generation caregivers taking care of those elderly and those unable to perform the daily activities a life without assistance it's a for filling career and I enjoy it. What are you joy most about being caregiver is providing care comfort and company to those individuals that I provide care for knowing that theyare comfortable and their needs are being met is goes without saying there are no words to explain the peace that I feel when I know that my clients needs have been met allowing them to maintain dignity and respect. A person achievement that I'm proud of is called the completion of CNA school andmaking the decision to enroll in R N in school to further my education in the nursing field

I have 25 years of experience, very easy to get along with , love doing my job

I feel like I am caring, loving and patient individual, I like to care for others that need care, I have an hear to listen when someone needs someone to talk to, I don't mind helping others, it's a part of my trait. I once was going to school for nursing, but didn't finish, so I worked in the acute hospital and convalescent home, plus in-home care for quite a while. I love caring for the sick and disable. I like to try and help and encourage others to get better and not to quit. I saw a friend of mine hold on after she was diagnosed with breast cancer, when the doctor's had given up on her, that I was there to encourage her to not give up and she lived a healthy life for a little of two more years, when the the breast cancer attacked her again, and she was tired and gave up and died.

Love being around people who appreciate me . Caregiving makes me feel at home because i get to enjoy what i do while doing it as a job . My grandma attracted me to be a caregiver because i would take care of her and a lot of my residents remind me of her. i enjoy most about caregiving is knowing that i help people everyday and they trust me . Personal achievement i am proud of is always doing my job as best as i can and always putting a smile on peoples faces .
