About Jordan

What makes me a great caregiver is that I am always about putting other people's well being before my own and care about my clients. Care to me not only means getting something for them to eat, but also sitting down with them and being there as a companion and someone to talk to. I became a caregiver because it takes a person with a heart to show their caring ways and I believe that caring is way more important than making money. Caregiving is a career that is often overlooked because we aren't a nurse or doctor but we are essentially one of the many backbones in health care. What i like most about being a caregiver is seeing my clients happy and depend on me to make their day better not only emotionally but also physically as well. I have been told that my smile brightens up clients faces when they see it. My biggest personal achievement was making a client less stubborn and actually start to smile and open up. They didn't like me at first because I was new to them but in the time I knew them they started being more optimistic and having a positive outlook on life again.

I love being a caregiver taking care of the individual that can and can't perform their daily activities, that's why I'm there to help.. I Iook on the bright side of things and try to bring joy to a persons life. I have taken care of a lady and her husband for 5 yrs. she had dementia, bipolar disorder and sun downer, I handled that situation with patients problem solving and trying to keep everyone happy. After her husband died I was their for support, companionship. I didn't hover over her - I gave her space but was near by to keep her safe.. I love learning new things about people. It's a great achievement to help out the family with their loved ones. I don't have a problem with taking the person on errands, Dr. appointments with my car or theirs. I like to take walks with the person I'm taking care of, wheelchair or walker. When I'm not care giving I like to read books, walk and go hiking..And catch up with friends.. My recent work has been taking care of a person that is bed ridden with MS and uses a hoyer.
