About Carol

I am a caregiver because I have always enjoyed helping elderly people. I took care of my mother when she was older and couldn't get around good. It makes me feel good when they laugh and tell me stories about them. When I come to work as a caregiver it doesn't feel like a job to me. I just feel like I am helping a family member. I try to make their day as bright and happy as I can. I have been taking care of clients professionally for 4 yrs and I still work at a community now. But I have always enjoyed taking care of the elderly.

Experience & Education

Caregiver in memory care

Dec 2018 - Present
Heartis senior living community
I am a caregiver for 26 residents that have dementia and other things wrong that they need help with getting dressed and eating and getting ready for bed. And taking a shower. Some have colonoscopy bag that I have to change and keep clean. They require a lot of patience. I am a very patient person. So it doesn't bother me to keep answering the same question over and over. We play games and talk and laugh. My job is to keep them safe and clean and that they eat. I love my clients very much!! It's not like work. It's like a family!!

My name is Susan Kiarie. I have been a caregiver and a Medication Aide for the past 17 years, both in facilities and in-home private care, especially with different forms of dementia like Alzheimers, Parkinson and lewy body. After the diagnosis of our mother with Alzheimers, I realized how much care she needed and in return I knew this is what I wanted to do. What I enjoy the most about caregiving, is seeing the relief of families when I am there to help, in the comfort of their homes. I am proud to say that in the past 7 years of private caregiving, I have had only referrals, which helps me know that I must be doing something right. Thank you.
