Stroke Caregivers in Lyons - 120 caregivers found

I feel like I am a good caregiver because when my dad turned 80 he needed extra help because he started forgetting some stuff. Started to get Alzheimer's. So I began helping him with medication, cooking, cleaning, laundry, errands, doctor appointments, bill paying etc. Sometimes I would find myself at his home 4-5 times a day answering questions over and over again or just to keep him company. He had some amazing stories of his life so I overstayed my visits. It was great! He passed away at 90. Then my sister started having medical problems when she turned 65. I did the same for her and would spend a lot of time with her as well. I cleaned her home, did her laundry and took her to doctor appointments. I kept her company at the hospital as often as I could. We spent a lot of time on the phone. It helped so she wasn't so bored. I enjoyed the time I spent with both of them. It made me feel useful. So after all the help I gave to both of them, I started to look into Caregiving. It's a great career. To help others is great!

I am a single mother of four. I have been a caregiver since 2011 and decided at the beginning of 2020 to take the next step to get my CNA. Taking care of others, especially the elderly, has been a passion of mine since I was just a little girl. Watching my grandparents help others in the community, and also people in our family, was such an inspiration. Helping someone and seeing the smile on their face gives me so much joy. I love what I do and I love building a connection with new people.

I started caregiving within my family when I was young teenager. Since I started caregiving I always felt good and honest about helping others who need it. I've been caregiving for 5 years and every time I walk into someone's home that feeling of being really eager to lend a helping hand never fades and the feeling of leaving someone's home after being caring and supportive and gentle makes me feel like a very accomplished person.

I became a care giver , because I like helping people, and keeping people company when they need it. I have worked with several clients with taking them to appoints, run errands, grocery shopping, or just to take them out to eat to enjoy the day. I believe every one deserves respect and need to be kind and helpful.
