About Celeste

1. I was a single child who was raised only by my mother. When I turned 9 her Diabetes got worse and she had numerous strokes and lost her vision completely. Her condition only got worse over time, and that left me being her full time caregiver. I had nurses come by and show me how to care for her. Listed is a couple of things that I did to care for her. Inject Insulin twice daily, give medications, catherize her daily, dress her wound on the bottom of foot daily, cook,clean,wash, check blood suger levels. And this started at the age of 9 for me. 2.) I just like the way I feel after I have helped someone in need. I am a people person and I always try to help whenever I can. 3.)

    I was trained by my mothers personal home health care agency how to properly take care of her. I would have to check her sugar levels and provide iInsulin in accordance. I had to soak het foot in ephson salt twice daily and dress with gauze due to an open infection she had. My mother was legally blind so at a young age I had to learn to be a caregiver. I had to cook, clean, and take care of my mother.

    I am a great caregiver because I want my clients to know that I am there for them in any way I can help. I became a caregiver because it is a positive and rewarding job. I like being a caregiver because that means I am working as a health care professional doing what I love. I think it has been a wonderful experience getting to know my clients and working in a healthcare field. I like to read current events in the newspaper to a patient, do a crossword puzzle, or a puzzle. I also studied nutrition in college and have an Associate's Degree in Science.
