Sierra College

Greetings! I am a full time mother of two toddlers. Ive been fortunate enough to stay at home and raise them these past 3 years. I am looking for small part time opportunities to caregive again! I am outgoing, friendly, passionate, honest, and a hard working caregiver. I started caregiving back in 2011, when my grandmother was released from a rehabilitation center and sent home crippled and helpless. I provided 24 hour care. I had future plans to move to out of state, so when that time came, I knew exactly what kind of job i wanted to get into. It was caregiving! I knew it was something I enjoyed and I knew I could do! My favorite part of caregiving, is getting to know my clients on a personal level. I enjoy going out with them, playing games, doing puzzles, and going through old photo albums. I provide care for health and medical needs. I have experience with all sorts medical needs, and can easily be taught.

I like to make a difference in a seniors life. I enjoy their company, and the learning all about the past. I have done so many good things for them, they appreciate it. I am proud of the fact that I have never had a complaint, and get a lot of thank you. I worked at facilities, and got employee of the month, employee of the year. I enjoy home care, one on one, as you get to know the person and their needs. I am a senior, so I fully understand. I never miss work. I enjoy the activities that we go to.

I’m hardworking, detail oriented, reliable, dependable and trustworthy with a compassionate heart that loves to serve others and see others reach their full potential. I’m a team player and work well in a diverse atmosphere. I'm a strong advocate for Seniors and have a strong belief that In-Home care is a better quality of life for the senior and their families.

I absolutely love people and caring for others. It has been a passion of mine since I was a little girl. The thing I enjoy most, is being able to be a blessing in anyway I can. I take a lot of pride in my work. The achievement that I am most proud of is when one of my old clients had a stroke and lost movement of his right hand. The doctors and physical therapist said that he would have to have surgery to correct the nerve damage. I didn't except this so I started doing exercises with his wrist and fingers. After 3 months of doing this everyday he was able to use his hand again. No surgery. I am very proud of myself for not giving up on him when others said there was no hope.

I became a caregiver when a friend who did caregiving needed someone to cover her shifts. Later some shifts became available so I was happy to continue. I liked being a companion for a very sharp, interesting women. She had so many great life stories. I did light housekeeping, prepared lunch and did things around her house she could no longer do, like cleaning out her closets and going through her piles of mail. We had many wonderful conversations. I also helped care for my mother who had Alzheimer's. I was a hospice volunteer for two years which I found very rewarding. I did Reiki sessions for clients which were profound experiences. A personal achievement I am very proud of is raising my two daughters. They are beautiful, smart and educated. They both married wonderful men who adore them for who they are. I am also the proud grandmother of a sweet boy and girl. They are the joy of my life. I visit them as often as I can. Thank goodness for technology and we facetime call usually once a week. I am semi retired looking for part-time work to supplement my income. I am educated (Master's degree) and worked for a number of years as a computer programmer analyst and then did accounting. I am an avid reader and enjoy all types of music. I love to dance. I am interested in architecture. For my semi-retirement I am investigating more right-brained activities. I was very artistic as a child and want to recapture that. I moved to Tucson AZ in September 2015. I live in the NW section of Tucson (technically Marana) with my husband James.

I am a great caregiver wiht good experienced, good companion, friendly, my family and friends always tell me that I have a big heart, love people and more important I am very skilled in patient care, work before with kids all ages and women have live in position, I am speak english and spanish.

I am a compassionate individual possessing a solid background in In-Home Caregiving with additional expertise as a CNA. It is a great pleasure for me to provide care and companionship to the elderly in any institution as well as their personal home.

I became a caregiver to help others live a life to the fulliest in a happy safe environment with hope and happiness, I love seeing people feel good doing what they enjoy and seeing them smile. I have a wonderful family with three children all grown successfull and happy.

When I first meet my future client(s) and family we get to know each other quickly. I am a relaxed easy going person who likes to make the day fun and interesting but yet work productivly while serving your family member (s). Having to re-enter the workforce after raising three daughters and graduating from college led me on a search for a career that fed my soul while serving others. I became a caregiver because a friend at church suggested it and I found it was a perfect fit. What I like most about care giving is that it is multi- faceted work. It not just about the everyday tasks it's about relationships, relating, observing and thinking creatively as to how to meet a special need, hope or want. Its about bringing my whole self into another's life and finding out what they need and then working to make it happen. Recently I was able to take a mother (Alzheimer's) and son (physical disabilities) out to Walmart to do Christmas shopping. It was a great day. The son enjoyed the day and had a great sense of accomplishment and the mom had a chance to see her son realize a goal. They both thanked me in the car on the way home and were so happy. This gave me a great sense of accomplishment as neither if them wanted to venture out much for the first few months. Now, after a year with them we plan out the day and include at least one fun adventure each week. This expands their world, abilities and enhances their lives. I wouldn't have it any other way.

Hi! I'm Samantha! I love being a caregiver because it gives me purpose and allows me to help others and be of service while making a living. I currently work in a memory care facility in Sacramento, CA and will be moving to Seattle WA in March or early April! I have been at this facility since April 2015 and before that I was a private caregiver in 2 homes for a little over 2 years total. I take care of 11-15 patients a day depending on staffing, so I am a great multitasker! I am extremely experienced with all types and stages of dementia (including Alzheimer's) from mild cognitive impairment to highly advanced cases. I have a passion for elderly people and truly love building new friendships and bonds with my patients as well as their families. I look forward to bringing my skills and my knowledge into the homes of those who need it, and making both the patient and the loved ones more comfortable for those hours that can't be spent together. I hope to hear from you soon!

what me great caregiving I am very caring person and enjoy work with people .When family pick me make a good fit I can said that I am caring person love to take of people need that they cannot do.

I have been a caregiver ever since October of 2017 and I love it so much! I am 18 years old (turning 19 in August) and I am currently a student enrolled at Sierra College. Currently, I'm taking the program prerequisites to ultimately pursue my dream career as a nurse. I was looking for more CNA type jobs about a year ago because I recently completed an internship at Sutter Roseville Medical Center where I basically shadowed the CNAs in the Oncology unit, and I got to see what it was really like to work as a nurse/doctor/CNA in the hospital. So I thought to myself why not try caregiving since I loved working with the elderly in the Oncology unit, and honestly it was the best decisions I have ever made. My favorite thing about caregiving is forming connections and relationships with my residents/clients and just knowing that I am making the smallest difference in their life is so rewarding!

I am a compassionate and empathetic individual whom believes in treating the client with dignity and respect. I have always been interetsted in medicine and how an individuals quality of life can be improved through specialized care. I thrive off of the appreciation and recognition I receieve from caring for my clients. I personally enjoy seeing an individuals quality of life improve with quality care.

Hello, My name is Heidi and I am an outgoing, kind, patient and compassionate person pursuing a registered nursing degree and a new career as a nurse. I am currently finishing up clinicals for my nursing assistant program and will be a licensed CNA as of January of 2018. After my first day of clinicals in an assisted living facility, I knew I would be caring for the elderly and disabled while working my way through school. The work is so rewarding and I feel that I can make a difference in people's lives. I truly love getting to know my patients and find that they can be the most genuine, caring and interesting people I have ever met. I am well educated and hold a Bachelors of Science in Biology, an Associates degree in Business Administration, and I have recently completed the classroom portion of a CNA program as well as all of my pre-requisites to apply to RN programs this spring. Besides my clinical experience, I am a mother and the daughter of two wonderful parents in their mid 70's. I chose CareLinx for a more personalized caregiving experience and to be able to give the care that patients deserve. I would love the opportunity to help care for your loved one with concern and respect. Please reach out with any questions you may have.
