About Edith

My primary concern as a caregiver is to make sure that my client is able to function at the best of their ability and to make sure that they are having the highest quality of life that they are able to have. I am not only there for my client but I am also there for the family (such as: to let them go grocery shopping, are just to be another set of ears at doctor appointments or for the family. After a few days with the client and the family I begin to consider them family. I have a great amount of nurturing and empathy, some say I care to much but I give 150% to my clients and families. I enjoy order and dispensing medication, relating to my clients, enjoy the pass and working on family history. I have no parents or grandparents so my clients kind of fill these roles. I have been a first responder, EMT, CPR Instructor, nurse's aide, and medication aide. My personal achievement that I am most proud of is having a D.N.S. that I work with for a long time trust me to teach new nurse's the medication routine and to be a charge nurse. As a personal care giver the highest praise I can be given is for my client to tell me I must be an angel and that they love me.

I am a very attentive, respectful, kind person that knows what its like to need special help for a loved one. If it is brought to my attention that someone's needs aren't being taken care of properly I will make sure to take care of those needs to the best of my ability. I first got started caring for others when my grandparents got sick and needed help tending to their every day activities. I recently went through Marquis and recieved my CNA licence and BLS CPR certification. My greatest achievements are my 3 kiddos.
