About Vivian

I love working with people . I have been a primary school teacher before and have also worked at a hospital and clinic before. What made me feel great about taking care of people especially the elderly is because of my grandparents, they told me lots of stories that makes me laugh even now. I always see elderly people as my grandparents. I have this kind of passion for the job am doing. I give all my best in caring for people l work with. I have received a couple of certificates for being a dedicated care giver, which I can show if I need to. I am hoping to acquire more knowledge in order to help more people and put a smile on the face. I love my job not only for the money, but people welfare is also important to me.

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.
