My personality traits that help me to be a great caregiver is , I am attentive with my clients. I take my job serious but love my clients to be happy and to feel safe. My attraction for caregiving started as a lil girl, my father was a diabetic. I always told him I was going to take care of him and I did. I naturally love helping others. What I enjoy most about caregiving is ,it gives a fulfillment to help others who are in need . You never know how you will end up one day. Help ease other people stress. A personal achievement was being able to take care of family members and clients with respect and love .I loved making them comfortable and they knew they could depend on me while being taken care of properly.

I'm a very unique person. I'm very dependable and reliable to get any job done because I'm a fast learner and willing to try anything. What makes the job is my residents being happy In the best of care so my job is to make them smile and laugh. My grandmother passed this summer and she loved my passion for helping others that's why I wanted to do social work. I have a passion for what I do and to help to others in the time of need. I want to make a change.

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 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 feel that when u hire a caregiver you are bringing in someone as family to take care of your loved one like family

I became a caregiver after caring for my dad, in his last stage of Cancer. I then realized that this was my calling. I love people.

I first started out through Addus Health Care in Marion, Illinois. At the time I did not know what I was really doing, it was just a starter job until I could find the job that I was truely looking for. Within the first couple of weeks that Addus Health Care, they were sending me to different clients homes, it took a little while for me to start feeling comfortable. The people who I got to come in contact with, and help with their daily living schedules; were so nice and so good to me; they were so loving, and it was the people who showed me so much love who made me want to show all my love back and they made me want to help them; but most of all through all the months and years that I had devoted my life with these people; it became where I just didn't want to share my love with them; I needed to show them because I need them as much as they need me. I love helping other people and getting to become a special part of their lives and families. I continued my education into CNA and CPR classes and have graduated, and am now State Certified through Tennessee.

I love caring for people I always have. I plan to go to school for Nursing.

I graduated high school with my CNA license and shortly after started my first job at Hardinsburg Nursing and rehab center. It was extremely stressful but very rewarding. I learned a lot from not only my co-workers but the residents I looked after. This job gave me the opportunity to further learn about medical issues and how I could help ease the pain or simply take their mind off of it. Shorty after leaving this job I started working as a caregiver at the BeeHive homes of Grayson county which is an assisted living facility in Kentucky. The BeeHive was a much more positive environment and allowed me to grow personal relationships with the people I cared for. The BeeHive is half the size with double the manpower which allows the caregivers to take breaks and actually get to know who we are caring for, their life story, their family and so much more. I love working with my residents because when I have some life problem I'm telling them about they have all kinds of wisdom to share.
