Stroke caregivers in Courtland, CA - Home Care

To be a caregiver is all I've ever wanted to do, I feel like I was born to be a caregiver. And I really love to communicate with elders. I can learn more life experience from them. Also I will be happy when I have the ability to bring some comfort to the elderly, that's so wonderful to see the smile on their face.

I am a caring and dependable person i love helping others. I became a caregiver to help people who need it when families are not available or at work. I like being able to help other to live in their homes as long as they can,with assistance. I studied Family Consumer Education at San Joaquin Delta College, and got my ECE certification their. I have my CNA/ HHA Certification also. Available 3:00 pm to 11:00 pm.

I have a strong ability to empathize with others. Not only because Im a compassionate person but because I know what its like to need a helping hand or an ear to listen even another heart to care. I am a Cancer survivor and single mom of a beautiful little girl who is now 8. Im blessed to be here so Im sharing my favor to be a blessing to someone else. Im a free loving and open spirited person, mother, sister, friend, child, and professional. I love people I love learning new things and have a huge appreciation for the quality of life in everyone. Im recently relocated back home here in Sacramento California and Im excited and ready to be a helping hand.

I believe what makes me a great caregiver is I generally care about the ones I take care of. Some companies tell you that part of your job is not to get close to your clients or patients, that you can't have a relationship with the ones you take care of on a daily basis. I will always go above and beyond for the ones under my care. I always feel and treat them as if they are one of my family members as well. I wouldn't do anything for them that I wouldn't do for my own mom , grandma, aunt, uncle, dad, grandfather. Not only am I there for the client/patient but I'm also there for the families as well. Questions, concerns, suggestions, keeping them up to date on conditions. Communication is big with me on keeping everyone on the same page so that the best care can be given at all times. I became a caregiver because my ex husband was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer. He called me from the hospital asking for my advise and help. I left California to go back to New York to help him threw his treatments and all of his struggles. His fight has been long and hard and he has not given up yet on life. Seeing other family members go in and out of nursing homes being neglected , alone, and losing their will to live has been a struggle and I've taken caregiver positions with all of my terminally ill relatives and a few friends. I want others to feel that their loved ones are safe and taken care of when they are unable to be there with them. That's the main reason why I do what I do. The fulfillment I get when I know I've made a difference for someone else. Whether it's for the patient that is passing or the family members that need that reassurance their loved one is being properly taken care of. I enjoy everything there is to being a care giver.

I have been in the field. For more than 25 years, I have been very successful in providing care for individuals according to each clients needs. I pride myself on the fact that I got one particular client who wasn't willing to participate in any exercise and was wheelchair bound to not only participate, but eventually began walking. I am extremely proud to say I absolutely adore working with seniors, I've been doing it for a long time. I love being in the company of them. I absolutely admire the stories and the way they did things.
