Stroke Caregivers in Melcher - 6 caregivers found

My name is Charlotte Findley I'm 55 yrs old. I worked many years in health care. My aunt, who was Director of Nursing at a Care Center took me to work with her when I was 12 yrs old. I fell in love with the company of older people. The stories and wisdom I would crave from then on. I started volunteering at the center. My aunt said that I added love and happiness when I visited but really I who recieved an abundance of love and happiness from being with the residence. Those are days I am forever greatful for. I found my calling , Caregiving!!! I had a small in home daycare in my early 20s. (back when i could keep up with several whipper snappers -those were the days lol) I have worked as a CNA in Care Centers. I also worked as a Home Health Aide (HHA) and as a Companion/Homemaker for folks in their homes. I worked as a Residential Assistance Tech (RAT) in group home settings, assisting those with intellectual different-abilities live as independently as possible. Though I didn't make a fortune monaterly I certainly feel very rich with many wonderful memories and friendships Ive gained along the way. I haven't worked for quite sometime . I helped cared for both my grandfather's who had Alzheimer's . I cared for my little sister (23 yrs younger then I ) who was born with special needs and required total care. She was called home March 2014. I cared for my dad who had esophalgial & brain cancer. He peacefully transitioned, as he refered to it, at my home in Feb 2015. I help my mom care for my 2nd dad (step dad) who had heart problems until he too was called home Jan 2018. Since then I've been caring for myself and my home. May of 2021 my grandson Oliver Thomas was born. What a joy grandparenthood is!! I am ready to get back to working outside the home again and am looking forward to meeting new people, learning new things, hearing new stories /personal histories and helping folks stay safely in their homes and as independant as possible.

Hi, I'm Alexandria! My dedication, big heart & thorough work ethic has helped me exceed in my role as a Caregiver over the last 4 years I love being able to connect with the amazing souls I've had the opportunity to work with so far. I grew up going to work with my mom in the nursing home; playing games, telling/listening to stories & building bonds with the residents. Since then, I knew I wanted to continue on that path as an adult. I've been able to help people in so many more ways than my lil brain could've thought! Helping to improve another's quality of life is the most rewarding part of this job for me[?].

My name is Sara and I've been a Certified Nurses Assistant for a little over three years. I have worked in assisted livings and I am currently employed at a hospice house. I first became interested in being a caregiver when I was a kid. My grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's four or five years ago and I was involved in taking care of her and took care of her at the hospice house. I am currently looking for jobs so that I have something lined up. I am currently very flexible and will consider all shifts expect for some weekends as I still have my other job. I love being a CNA and taking care of people!

I have been a CNA off and on for 25 plus years in both Nebraska and Iowa. I recently chose to do home healthcare because I really enjoy assisting one on one. As a caregiver I am able to really get to know the person I'm assisting. I love hearing stories my clients have told me about their lives before they were needing assistance. I am proud to be a home health care provider because it is a passion of mine to help people. And when I see a client happy because I was able to assist with things they aren't able to do for themselves anymore or just need a little assistance that makes me feel good. I follow the golden rules of dignity and respect for each client. I follow the HIPPA rules also a care plan.
