About JOSPHINE

Hi, my name is Josphine Ikua and l am originally from Kenya, East Africa. I have been a caregiver since 2009 and l have upgraded my education by doing more courses and updating my skills to meet the needs of my clients. I love cooking and learning new recipes too. Gardening is something l like doing sometimes when l have spare time. Taking care of people in need is my passion. My Father Passed on a few years ago and that even made my passion for people in need even more compassionate. He needed someone to help him with his ADLs, while l was away, but it was so unfortunate he didn't get the care he needed. So when l am helping someone, especially someone of my dads age, l feel happy and know that my dad is happy watching me give a hand to someone else. I am looking forward to opening my own business, where l can be able to take care of even more clients and serve them more. Looking forward to meet more clients and make more friends in this field.

The world exists upon the kindness showed by others, and that this kindness keeps alive the souls of those needing care. What I like about being a caregiver is that, for clients who cannot do many of the things they used to do, like running around and getting things done to take care of their families--life now begins anew based purely upon things that matter now today-- the worth, the thoughts, and the amount of attention that is paid toward them. This is a time of really focusing only on the present moment, and it takes a certain degree of concentration even to do that, sometimes. They are now the person who need this the most. My greatest personal achievements are when clients, who experience a decrease in function, and sometimes can hardly move or talk, are the most appreciative for my attentiveness to understand them. The story of the Good Samaritan identifies a good neighbor as one who shows kindness, and the rewards write upon the heart and soul. Caregivers are to the aging population a group who recognize that aches and pains are not going to go away. What some call a disadvantage, or disability serve, in many ways, to be an advantage because we shift our focus and attention toward what is really important in life-- people and how they are treated. I am only one of many like-minded caregivers who believe that a moment of clarity with loved ones--paying attention to the good in the moment--is the same as finding diamonds in your own backyard. Thanks for hiring through the Carelinx network!
