I am a very loving person, giving and attentive to care needs. Dependable and reliable and very hardworking.. I am skilled in homecare, hospices and other illnesses of clients

I am a contentious person who has cared for the elderly in my youth. My grandmother to neighbors requesting a little help. I have also worked with special need individuals as a paraprofessional. These are the basic reasons why I have chosen to work in Health Care as a care giver. The feeling of promoting advocacy is something that I don't take lightly. The aging process in reverse is just as important as infancy; they need protection and help to thrive and enjoy their time here.

Greetings! I am excited about caregiving because I like to help others in a meaningful way; two experiences that I found extremely rewarding were volunteering in the nursing home (as a high-schooler) and serving as a Peace Corps Volunteer. People who know me would describe me as kind, dependable, and patient. I would bring a high level of care and strong work ethics to working with your loved one. I have a background in practical nursing, currently work in public health, and seek a part time caregiver position.

I have been a caregiver for almost 2 years now. I started off taking care of a few disabled students in my university. Now I work in a nursing home caring for numerous sick or elderly residents. I sought this type of work while I was in school because I needed a job and this was perfect because I have a nature that just wants to nurture and care for people. What I enjoy is the personal gratification I get from making people's lives better and more comfortable. I also enjoy the social connection from getting to know the people I care for--not just about their physical conditions, but also their hobbies, interests, dreams and aspirations, and experiences. All of it is a very humbling experience. Something I am proud of is my baptism into a Christian faith 2 years ago. I am a devout believer and follower. Other hobbies of mine are basketball, baseball, reading romance, adventure, and horror novels, and spending time with friends and family.
