Kay C.

I have 30 years of experience in providing personal in-home care for disabled, cognitively impaired, chronically ill, and hospice patients. I assist patients with daily personal care tasks such as bathing, dressing, and grooming. I monitor patients' vital signs, including pulse, blood pressure, temperature, and respiration. I am a thoughtful and considerate person who takes pride in providing the best care possible. I became a caregiver through the influence of my great aunt and grandmother as they were the neighborhood caregivers. I watched them as a child and knew I wanted to do the same thing. I began by taking care of my grandmother when she became home bound in her older age. For the past three years, I was the care taker for my mother after she suffered a stroke. The thing I enjoy the most is feeling a sense of joy and humility in assisting those in need in conducting their activities of daily living. They are so appreciative. I consider it a personal achievement when they recover and there is no further need of my services. That confirms that my work with them has improved their quality of life.

I am very companionate and my greatest wish is to lift up someone who really needs help. I have grand parents who are growing old and providing assistance has always been my joy and I worked in an organization for persons with disabilities, that is one of the best time because I was able to provide assistance and was a voice to the voiceless. It is my passion to do same wherever I am . Put a smile on someone's face and make them see hope, I can say I have been able to do that because most of my client are uplifted.
