Stroke Caregivers in Glen Allen - 237 caregivers found

I am an experienced caregiver and comfortable tending to folks with a variety of handicaps, whether they are physical or mental disabilities. Much of my experience came from providing care to an elderly hemiplegic stroke survivor (paralyzed on one side). For years, I provided meaningful conversation and companionship, timely medication administration, assistance with personal hygiene (bathing, toileting, etc.), physical therapy, reading, memory recall practice, housekeeping, and taking consistent, detailed notes of her activities, progress, and state of mental and physical wellbeing. As a step-parent of three, I never really left the field of domestic work. I am also an NHA Certified Clinical Medical Assistant, which means I have been trained in patient care, taking vital signs, as well as administering first aid, CPR, and medications. Although I am not opposed to strictly medical work environments, I feel it is time for me to continue caring for new clients in a home setting. My favorite part about being a caregiver is companionship centered around human needs. I miss my former primary client, who passed away a few years ago. Even on days when we were going nowhere, I still helped her get dressed, curled and teased her hair, and helped with makeup. She always had a preferred way of doing things, so I served as her natural extension and carried out tasks in the way she would have done them herself. I am fully. vaccinated and boosted for Covid-19. I do test regularly as an additional precaution. Everyone in my household (including all three children) are also fully vaccinated.

I am an upbeat, happy CNA of 14 years. I have worked everywhere from in my clients homes to hospital to long term care facilities. I have experience with hoyer lifts, sit to stands and hands on transfers. I have worked with many people with dementia and Alzheimers and I have about a years experience working with the mentally disabled. I enjoy helping people and knowing that I am doing what I can to make others lives easier

I love the smile I get when I'm at work and I'm doing my job and the family has somebody that really cares and enjoys there job.I would say my biggest personal achievement would have to be continuing my education but the most important one was having beautiful kids and becoming a mother.

I am a compassionate experienced caregiver who enjoys working with all kinds of patients from dementia to hospice care and many more.

I'm Caring, Compassionate, and Hard working. I became a caregiver when my Grand mother became ill. I wanted to give her the same care she gave us when my parents split. I always try to give a 110% and would do whatever it takes to make the clients feel as normal as possible. I've been a caregiver for over 20 years. My greatest accomplishment is to have taken courses for the L.P.N. curriculum. I want to make a difference in the lives I touch.

I'm a positive person. I always have a smile on my face. I am a greater listener and can keep a good conversation. I like to care for people. I imagine that the people i'm caring for are my own grandparents. A personal achievement I'm proud of is being the first one in my family to graduate from college.
