About Belinda

I like to encourage and lift up the spirits of my patients. I took care of my mother who was in a wheelchair and then later became bedridden for over 10 years. We would watch tv together. I would be her legs and get her whatever she needed. Mom and I would also go to her doctor appointments together. I would set up appointments for her also. I assisted her in transferring to her wheelchair on a sliding board and also used a Hoyer lift to sit her in her wheelchair. I would be there during physical therapy and do exercises with her on days there was no physical therapy. I also set up her medication for the week and administered it to her. We would go outside in the backyard on nice days and garden together. I did all this everyday for over 10 years. Towards the end she used a bed pan. I changed her sheets and did her laundry. I enjoyed caring for her. Mom and I had a good time together. She was also a bariatric patient. She weighted over 400 lbs.

Greetings, I've discovered that regardless of someones health condition or disability everyone deserves to have a good quality life and to be happy, thats way I became a "Compassionate Caregiver" it is so important to provide compassionate care to thoughes that need caring for. One of my good friends was in a car accident that left him as a Quadriplegic, now being such a young man, he became very depress with life and I had a problem with that so I decided to learn how to care for him and I did just that. I started by being Trained by the Healthcare facility free of charge were he lived. I started class room and hands on training for eight weeks and I had taken a CPR course. I did this so my friend could have a quality life. I also taken a course on how to transfer Quadriplegic patients so that I could transfer him the correct way from his wheel chair to my car and from the car to his wheelchair and back into the facility were he was living, that alowed us to go places, Dr appointments and places he liked going to. Then he stoprd looking at his self deficiencies but instead, he started loving life once again and loving people and we made the best of things. So he begin enjoying are times together once again just like old times and thats how I became a Home Healthcare Provider.
