About Rachel

what makes me a great care giver is my ability to love and accept everyone for who they are as well as the passion that I have always had since a child of taking care of people. Growing up I had a little brother that could not walk, talk, sit up or feed himself. He had no control over his functions at all. I was the oldest child and spent all my free time feeding him, changing him, bathing him, administering his meds on a daily basis. Using a track in our home I was able to maneuver him around the home to take care of him, I did this for 18 years. I spent all my time with him, loving a caring for him. He passed a few years ago due to his illness and I vowed to continue to find ways to take care of, serve and help people, its has been my way of keeping his memory alive. I believe my experience with him is why I am so passionate today and why I feel that being a caregiver is something that I am called to do. I love knowing that I am able to touch someone's life and make a difference. I know I would be a great fit as well as a great asset for your family no matter who you are or how challenging the situation, I am prepared to face it with you with a loving, compassionate and patient heart.

1. I grew up going to work in home health care with my mother and helped out a lot i came to love it. Caring for others is my life. Be it my children, family, friends or a personal caregiver, it's in my blood. 2. The people, being needed, appreciated and being helpful to someone who needs it. 3. I was a live in caregiver for a man with brain damage and a brainstem injury. He was totally dependant and had the mindset of a 5 year old. I worked hard with him every day, some days he didn't like me much, but by the end he was walking on his own, cooking his own meals, grocery shopping, using the restroom no longer needed adult diapers taking his medicine bathing and dressing himself and went from being child like to a proud reasonable adult and he no longer needed assistance. He had his life back. I'm very proud of bill Britton! 4. I'm a mother of a 13 year old girl and a 10 year old boy. I'm dependable, even when i don't want to be, i can't disappoint anyone, intentionally, or i feel horrible. I don't have any friends or family living close to me so i spend all my time at home being a mom. Never get out like people tell me to cause i always feel like i have too many responsibilitys I would rather tend to. I'm a pretty boring person I've been told. Note; My license and cpr certification has expired and I have not yet updated them. I definitely plan to in the near future.

I enjoy my time working as I have learned alot from just talking with differant people. Working with the elderly is a very rewarding job. Its not just about a pay check with me its about the quality of care I provide and the companionship.
