About Patience

I am a certified Nursing Assistant and a compassionate Caregiver, that has provided quality care to clients both in the hospital or in their home for over 17years. I have passion to help people. I derived so much joy in helping those who cannot help themselves. My motivation to become a caregiver is the passion I have to help those in need who have health ...challenges especially the ...elderly. I'm always happier and... must satisfied when I am interacting with my client, making sure I'm able to meet their needs and giving them my best. In my 17yrs of experience as a caregiver, I have cared for both young and elderly people, especially the elderly. People with diverse sicknesses. I always performed my duties excellently beyond the call of duty, and above all, I love my job.

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.
