Mesa High School

When I began caregiving I quickly figured out that I was literally being paid to be "me". I do for people what I would hope anyone would do for another person. I truly enjoy and learn from the senior community and its a privilege to spend time with them. I often say that I missed my era. I am most proud of my accomplishments as a mother and I feel the lessons I experienced raising my own children was a benefit to the compassion and nurturing nature I carry over into the lives and homes that I am blessed with in this profession. As I was told by my very first ,very mean client as I helped for the first time ever with toileting.......She said sternly "Girl would you treat me like you would want to be treated" Something clicked in me that day and I have been a Caregiver for 7 years since . I am blessed.

What attracted me to being a caregiver is I love to be able to help when it is needed and being able to give someone comfort when feeling alone .

What makes me a great Caregiver is being reliable, trustworthy, flexible, and patient. What i like about being a caregiver is helping others and knowing that i am making someone in this world happy that's the best feeling. A personal achievement i am proud of is being able to help someone if they have no one or just being there to support during there time and need.

I enjoy helping others. I'm a caregiver/companion. Helping others be self sufficient, and confidence is very important in this field. A good listener, and enjoying talking about the patients memories.

I became a caregiver many years back when my older sister was getting her nursing degree. From then on I worked at rehabs, nursing homes, private care & hospital. I enjoy what I do and I do believe if you don't have the heart for this kind of job it's definitely not for you. I always said if I wrote a book about all I have cared for I would be famous. I enjoy the fellowship to care for the elderly. Behind each health issue they were just like me at one point. They were someone. When I sit to hear their stories it touches me. Now they have to rely on someone everyday. I feel that when an elderly is happy then I know i have done my job well for that day.

I started working as a caregiver in 2016 I always loved helping others and have a one on one work environment so I can focus on the client needs.

I like to learn more about the client and i can be sure that i can try to respect what there familys wants me to and i will follow there needs to make them satisfy and happy and it makes me happy too to take good care of my clients is the first priority. It all first started with my parents i took care of both of them i was there caregiver for15yrs+ that's how my caregiver experiences at my own home and i will treat all my clients with love and respect just like as my parents or my own familys i love helping others especially seniors. I like talking with them read book's and tell stories take them for a walk just make them laugh and just makes them happy and let them know that you care for them and that's why you'll there. Im proud of being a part of a client's that i can take care and be a part of there life and make sure that they can trust you and be safe around you and im there to help them anyways i can help them.

I have a really big heart. I have a lot of compassion and empathy for elderly, sick, children, just people in general. I just absolutely love that I can care for people and make a difference in their lives.

I'm really friendly, loving and caring. My kind and generous smile and laughter. I enjoy the fun and exciting activities and games and stories. I'm proud of how honest and honorable I am and loving life as it is no complaints.
