About Ginny

Hello! I'm Ginny, and as a caregiver, one of the highlights of my work is to add a dose of cheer to an elder's day. After 35 years of combined experience, I am knowledgeable about the ongoing issues of aging, and can gracefully assist with the complicated changes your loved one faces. For a client who might feel isolated living at home, I enjoy adding some social time and activity to their environment. Helping out with even the little things, such as getting the DVD to start or writing a birthday card, can make a difference. With a combination of over 35 years of family and professional caregiving, I have plenty of experience to rely on for any possible situation. I have worked in a range of settings from companionship to hospice care. As a responsible, mature professional, I am reliable, consistently mindful of details, can follow directions well and offer other solutions. Professional particulars: CNA, MA (Medical Assistant), DSHS Approved Nurse Delegation certified, current BLS, and CPR. Quotes: As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. --Nelson Mandela There is nothing small about compassion. There is nothing small about making a difference in the life of one human being. --Terry Hershey

Robin C.

$30.00/hour · Aberdeen, WA
My rates are negotiable, I like to be flexible to hopefully suit the needs of everyone. I have been a CNA for 20 years with 5 years experience on a dementia - alzheimers unit. What makes me a great caregiver is my patience and understanding. I am a very compassionate type person and love to get to know the patient as well as the family. I became attracted on becoming a caregiver when I learned how broad of a spectrum I could work in. There is so much to learn and plenty of room for advancement. What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is making that one particular patient smile that never does. What a great accomplishment I feel this is. Brings me such joy to be able to bring a little sunshine to the patients life. My biggest personal achievement that I am very proud of is raising my 2 wonderful boys on my own with only my mothers help at times. They have both become very productive in their lives and love to return the favors to mom.
