I am patient, compassionate, accommodating, hardworking, and positive. I am also a good listener, and enjoy interacting with people. I greatly enjoy assisting seniors as this type of work provides me the opportunity to use my caregiving skills in serving the needs of the elderly. One of the most rewarding aspects of being a caregiver is knowing that I am making a difference in someone's life. In a previous caregiving job, my client showed improvement in mobility, appetite and mood after I began caring for her.

I am a cheerful, energetic and positive person. I handled the care of both my parents until they passed. My mother who outlived my father, lived with me for 10 years and passed of Alzheimer's and gastric ulcer in our home I handled her last weeks with the assistance of hospice care. I enjoy learning about other people's experiences in life and assisting them in any way I can from my experiences.

Hi, my name is Paul and I live in Portland. I've had a very active life and lived and travelled all over the world. Worked on the ski slopes of Switzerland, fishing boats in Alaska, taught English in Korea,and lived over 10 years in Hawaii. Now settled down in Portland, I've been working in healthcare. Taking care of patients with mobility issues, cancer, Parkinson's, and dementia. I took care of both my parents through end stage and hospice. I am cheerful and easy going and flexible in a work schedule. Available for all shifts including overnight. Please feel free to call me and I'd be willing to come over free of charge to see if it is a good fit. Thank you

My experience is both personal and professional. I have a Masters in Healthcare Administration, I was a Quality Director for a rural clinic, a first responder at a local Volunteer Fire Department, and I cared for my Mother and Brother with neurological disorders for more than six years. For me creating a safe and engaging environment was crucial to improve their respective living environments. Additionally, knowing the healthcare system, and being an advocate for their healthcare needs was critical to minimize confusion and improve their overall care. As a versed mechanic and handyman, I made their living environments safe with hold bars and special care devices, minimizing fall hazards. Additionally, traveling out of the house is essential in maintaining a level of freedom from confinement, and we would go out regularly to do errands, go to DR. appointments and do external activities. Cooking was a favorite for both, as I would cook their favorites usually in large quantities, so they had packaged meals that they could pop in the microwave. As I approach my early 60s, I have been very fortunate and desire to continue helping and caring for others. Helping to organize and manage small elements can make the difference in just getting along or feeling like a valued member of society.

I am an experienced and specialized Caregiver for sickly, disable and elderly with compassion, patience, trustworthiness, honesty, dependability and cheerfulness. I also have a professional business working experiences for Multinational American Companies and business education background. I am also capable to support your business. I love cooks, plays guitar, singer and playing golf. My rate is negotiable and my schedule is flexible.

I saw my father go through the aging process and coming from a family-centered culture where care for the elderly is strictly a family affair, the responsibility fell on me. With my dad, I learnt on the job that personal needs such as nutrition, medical needs and hobbies change with the aging process and most importantly, even if they have come to depend on you for most of their needs, you had to gain their trust and independence, dignity and privacy had to be respected. I enjoy being a care giver because it gives me the opportunity to meet wonderful people and get to know the wonderful lives they have lived. It gives an opportunity for human appreciation. You get to understand that your client is not just a statistic but a former or retired teacher, professor, engineer or chemist who has given their service to society. As a professional care giver, I am proud to say that everyone I have ever worked with whether employer or client is never happy to see me go because I go above and beyond expectation and I am able to build and gain the trust of my clients making them more relaxed to lead life as independently as possible. Presently, I am a student at the George Washington University studying public health via the online program and as a mother of two very active young boys, who is responsible for catering for their needs, I can say confidently that I am in health and personal care field for the long haul and you can count on me. Thank you.

I consider being a good caregiver because I take care of my client as if it was my own family, I have lots of respect for elders l love what I do because I love to give and help others that's the gift God gave me.

Numerous experiences in my lifetime led me to becoming a Caregiver. Growing up, I had a younger sibling who suffered from a rare disease, Hurler Syndrome. Living with a disabled sibling who was often in and out of the hospital meant I became very familiar with Caregiving. We also moved to the Ronald McDonald House in Minneapolis so that she could receive care. The loving spirit of all towards our suffering little girl was beyond touching. Then, Make A Wish sent us on a trip to Disney and my family enjoyed a week of happiness. I was so inspired that in college I have become President of the Make A Wish Chapter on campus. Then, in July 2013 I interned in Central Region, Ghana as a Global Health Intern for Global Brigades. It was then that I solidified my lifelong passion to work as a caregiver. As a young, disabled boy, living in a village, malnourished, wearing dingy clothing, and shoeless, touched my heart, I knew I would commit to a career in healthcare. What I like about being a Caregiver is that I am constantly humbled. I am reminded daily how any troubles in my life are miniscule compared to what others go through. Working with people allows me to connect, also. It brightens my day to see how I can brighten theres. A personal achievement which I am proud of was my internship in Ghana. At age 20, I got on a plane to leave the country for the first time, alone, going to meet strangers, in Ghana. I feared not following my passions across the ocean because of uncertain
