Salome M.

Some people ask me, "why are you a caregiver?" I smile and simply respond, "I care to care." Caring for others has not only created an occupation for me, but also a way of life. Waking up in the morning and knowing that I am on my way to make someone feel better, either by assisting with daily living activities, by listening, or by telling jokes that make a client smile, makes me feel a great sense of accomplishment and joy. I have been a caregiver for over six years and have never had a dull day since I began. Each day provides me with an opportunity to make a positive impact on someone, and I cannot think of anything more rewarding. I am an empathetic, forthright, punctual, honest, and patient individual who maintains professionalism at all times. I believe that these fundamental characteristics put me on level ground with the clients I have cared for throughout the years, and with their families and loved ones. Since childhood I have wanted to make a difference in people's lives, and being a caregiver I can make an impact that goes above and beyond that goal.

I became a caregiver in 2005, because I love helping elderly people to feel independent at all times in their own homes. I am experienced in the field of health care by assisting, encouraging, supporting and supervising with their daily needs and goals. I love what I do in helping elderly and individuals that I have been working with. It has made my understanding of life very effectively. Every thing that I put my mind to I achieved, I am really self motivated. I am compassionate, nurturing, dependable, trustworthy and empathetic. My great achievement is yet to come. I am a female who lived in Lorton Virginia with my lovely son. I achieved my Associate degree in nursing at Northern Community College and looking forward to pursuing my Bachelors of Science in nursing at George Mason University. I am a lovely, caring and self motivational. I enjoyed working with seniors, because of their past experiences and their motivation Spirit. I love making elderly people happy by supporting and engaging them with what they like to do. I am a honest, kind, passionate, and punctual at all times. I am a great candidate for this position and you will forever count on me in every thing.
