About Susan

Hello there, My name is Susan Gachangi and I have been a caregiver since 2004 when I got my CNA license. I have worked with elderly clients with different ailments and have developed great passion about my career. I easily wins the heart of my clients and this has made my life easy all the way. In 2011, I decided to pursue my career further so that I can attain more skills that will help me serve my clients better. I'm now an lpn and a CNA which make my work more easier than before and I can now handle clients with more complicated diagnosis than before. My parents are elderly and I believe treating other elderly as I treat my parents would give me the best satisfaction by the end of each day. I hope you will find pleasure in working with me and get the best care and love for your mum or dad. Cant wait to meet you and share my smile with you. Thanks.

    What makes you a great caregiver? I genuinely care about other people regardless differences and challenging characteristics; I don’t judge people and give them their privacy as well as take care of them with the best care and to their liking and comfort needs. I make sure things are done right and don’t take shortcuts, I’m honest, loyal, and compassionate towards other people. Why did you become a caregiver? I became a caregiver because I realized I listened to peoples needs and wanted to help improve the quality of their lives. I’m good at taking orders and encouraging people to do their best, to bring the best in them out. What do you like about being a caregiver? I enjoy when someone is content with the quality care I provide them. I enjoy taking people’s health into my hands and being successful, by keeping them at their optimal health. What is a personal achievement you are proud of? I am proud to have become a well-informed healthcare professional that knows how to care for any individual with any kind of condition due to all my experience and skills obtained from training.

    I have been a Certified Nursing Assistant for over 30 years. Part of that time I was a Medical Assistant. I became a caregiver originally to help family members, and found that I enjoyed it so much that I made it my career. I am most proud of the fact that I make lives better and increase the social life of my clients.
