Stroke Caregivers in Oconomowoc - 80 caregivers found

I am presently a Restorative Aide (CNA) at the Lutheran Home on North Ave in Milwaukee. Previously, I was a CNA at the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center, in the SCI/D wing (spinal cord injury/disorder). I left in search of a more balanced work environment. Additional duties (ones I don't have listed), can definitely be negotiated! I obtained my CNA the start of August 2021. I grew up with my own Grandmother telling me to stop hovering and go offer help to someone who needed it...she also frequently told me, until the day she passed, "Sarah, you would be good working with people, especially like me". I'm guessing she was referring to my patience, helpfulness, and understanding, especially working with "an old gal like her (Grandma's words, not mine). The elderly/frail population is the most I have worked with, but I'm by far not limiting myself to this population only! I have worked with clients with the following diseases/disorders/afflictions: Multiple Sclerosis Parkinson's Disease Various other neurodegenerative diseases COPD Injury to the spine at various levels Missing limb or parts of limb Different stages of Alzheimer's and general dementia Helping with recovery from a stroke at home RA Clients at various stages of cancer treatment And many more specific cases, too numeral to properly list here. Please ask about specific skills you require for proper care of your loved one! I don't have all skills/experiences listed, but I have been in the field of caring for over five years now and I love it! I have found my career niche in the work world! Thank you for your consideration, four professional references may be supplied upon request. Be happy, smile, and stay safe and healthy! Cheers! Sarah T.

I became a caregiver to help others, it's always given me pleasure knowing I was able to make someone else's life a little better. I like being a caregiver because it allows me to give back what has been in me. The thing I'm mostly proud of is how much I've accomplished throughout my life. I'm 37 years of age and I've been a CNA for about 13 years now. I'm a very family-oriented, compassionate person who cares about the level of care I provide to others. I'm very dedicated to those I provide services for. I believe in the clients' right to choose his/her care along with treating the client and their loved ones with dignity and respect.

Being prideful, positive, and empathetic makes me a great caregiver. As a kid, I'd always tell my parents that I want to do something great for someone. As I got older, my passion for working with the elderly grew! I would volunteer for local nursing homes & go and visit residents on my free time. The things I enjoy the most about being a caregiver are just being able to put a smile on someone's face & be their extra support when they need it! I am most proud of the personal growth such as self control and communication skills that I have learned over the years.

Hello, I am a nursing student at Cardinal Stritch University. As a caregiver I make great effort to provide each individual with the personal care they need in a physical and emotional supportive way. As your caregiver I will help with your daily activities, such as assisting with bathing and bathroom functions, meal preparations, feeding assistance, grooming, medication reminders, and house chores. I will help make and keep appointments with doctors, provide or arrange transportation and serve as a companion to you. I chose caregiving because I am patient and responsible and understand how important my role to help is. What I like mostly about my role as a caregiver is the impact I have on each individual in giving of myself and my time. My most personal achievement is raising my own children and pursuing my goal of becoming a nurse.

I became a caregiver due to my grandmother passing away & helping her while she was alive. After she passed I found a passion into helping people get better & continue to enjoy the time they have left. I love meeting new people that need my life I love learning about the experience they have in there life before the point they are at now . It's a enjoyable experience
