About Khorsian

After many years as a stay-at-home mom, I returned to work in 2014 by providing care to elderly clients on Lopez Island. Although I had previously worked as an occupational therapist several years before, caregiving was the only option that I had on the island, one to which I could continue to apply the knowledge and skills learned through my OT experience. I have grown to esteem the day-to-day work with my clients, particularly the relationship that is able to form through the hours, days, weeks spent together. In short, I value each human being and love being of service to others, which is why I have had these two careers of occupational therapy and caregiving. Here is an excerpt from my formal resume: Dependable and dynamic caregiver with recent experience as both a licensed HCA and licensed OT, providing excellent care for elderly and vulnerable adults. Conscientious team member, equally adept at working one-on-one with clients in the home. Contributes considerable insight and skills in the domain of psychology. * Friendly and compassionate, with outstanding interpersonal communication skills * Meticulous organizational skills * Culturally aware * Superior capacity to understand and adapt to new concepts and their correct applications * Innovative and practical thinker * Resilient employee.

As a Certified Nursing Assistant with nine years of experience, I enjoy getting to know people and contributing to their lives in a positive way. I do not shy away from working with various health issues. Most importantly, I want clients and their families to feel that they have received their money's worth when I have finished for the day. I reside in Seattle and am seeking local clientele. References from current and former clients are available upon request.

Hi I'm Ateka, I've been a caregiver for 10yrs. Working as a caregiver is very fulfilling as I enjoy seeing my clients happy and healthy. I believe that you should always take care of those who can't help themselves. In my country of Ethiopia I took care of senior citizens. We believe that the elderly should never suffer nor go into Nursing Homes to be alone. My hope is one day all people who need assistance will be able to get the quality care they need and deserve.
