I have been a caregiver for over 15 years in facility / at home. I want my resident/ client to know they are my first priority. I want them to feel and know that they do matter. I want to preserve their privacy, dignity, and independence as much as possible. I am an empathic person. I have studied and still studying Teepa Snow techniques. I believe that my role as a caregiver is to become like family and give the resident / client peace of mind in knowing someone is there for them even when they don't think that someone needs to be. I became a caregiver when a relative was neglected in a nursing home. I became a caregiver to show not all assistants are that way and I wanted to give the love and care to others that my grandfather wasn't shown. I want my resident / client to feel like she / he is the only person that matters to me. My personal achievement that I am most proud of is returning to school after so many years has passed. You are never too old to accomplish anything you set your heart and mind to do.
