Colfax Caregivers - 23 caregivers found

Hi! My name is Katherine, but you can call me Kat or Katie if you prefer! I've been doing caregiving/ hospice care for more than 5 years. I love being able to provide an atmosphere of hospitality and becoming close with the people I take care of. I started doing this profession when my sister was dying of cancer, I took care of her every day during her final days. What I loved about doing that, is feeling needed. She relied on me for everything, to be her comfort, to wash her hair, to make her laugh and smile. From sharing childhood memories and jokes, I knew this is what I wanted to do with my life after she passed and I did! I am so glad you have chosen me to care for yourself or a loved one. I promise to always make them feel special and meet every expectation they need.

I love helping people! Caregiving has been my dream since I first started this career when I obtained my CNA license at 15 years old. Ever since I was a little girl, I would go with my mom to volunteer at care facilities and nursing homes. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is helping others, and making them feel secure and comfortable. I am very compassionate and have a huge heart for others

I have a great personility, and a great sense of humuor! I've been a caregiver for 5 years now and love it! I just love the elderly and I get along well with them!

I became a caregiver initially as I was applying to nursing school and needed a CNA license. I instantly fell in love with the hands on patient care aspect of my job. I truly enjoy being able to connect with my residents and give them the respect and level of care they deserve. While working with the elderly I strive to treat them as I would my own grandparents. In fact, the summer after my freshman year of college, I moved in with my grandfather who had advanced stage Parkinson's disease to be his primary caregiver. Having worked with several residents who's Parkinson's stages ranged from newly diagnosed to advanced stages, as well as having an Alzheimer's Association certification, I felt well prepared to handle his needs. Although he passed after a few short months, I am very proud that I was able to let him stay in his home as he desired and make his last few months the best they could be. I am a last semester social work student at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. I have an American Sign Language certificate and am BLS certified as well. My hobbies include traveling, hockey, hiking, fishing and spending time with my family. My grandfather taught me many things in life but the most important was to treat everyone the way you would like to be treated.
