Moraine Valley Community Colle ...

My 13 years experience in caring and assisting people who can't do for themselves. My characters (trustworthy, reliable, responsible, accountable, caring) shows me with so much compassion for the people I serve makes me a great Caregiver/Personal Assistant/CNA. I became a CNA/Caregiver/Personal Assistant because I enjoy taking care of people who have lost their ability to handle their basic needs. I like being a CNA/Cargiver/Personal Assistant cause I take comfort in knowing that I make people comfortable as possible, put a smile on their face, and help improve the quality of life for them during what can be a trying time in their life. One personal achievement I am proud of is being the main role, for 6 years, in helping a man regains a positive outlook on/for his life after suffering a Stroke that left him with paralized on his right side, wheel chair bound, and told that he would never walk again. I committed myself to be his leaning tower(Personal Assistant/Caregiver). After 5 years of going to Physical and Occupational therapies 3 times a week with him, learning the exercises, then assisting him with these exercises in his home.he is no longer wheel chair bound, he walks 2 miles a day , he drive his vehicle, he's continues exercising in a gym, and he's no longer depress about his ability but encourage others living with a disability.

Hello! My name is Nakeisha Woods. I've been a Caregiver/CNA for 6 years. My first job in life was working as a private duty caregiver in an assisted living facility. I enjoyed working with seniors so much, I made my mind up to make it my career. What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is having the chance to experience that meaningful relationship with your clients. Since my grandparents passed before I was born, it's a plus to get to feel what it's like to have a grandparent, and take a trip down memory with them day by day. One personal achievement I'm proud of is my decision to go back to school. I currently attend Moraine Valley, pursing their Nursing program. If all goes well, I plan to become a private duty RN, maybe have my own company one day!

I take pride in keeping clients happy and healthy, and treating them like family!.

I love a home environment and appreciate getting to know one client very well, to provide the best care possible.

I enjoy building a comfortable and reliable routine, this goes a long way in developing peace of mind for the person receiving care and their families. Very important for my own family was that they would be able to remain home for both recovery and end of life care, and that I was able to provide that care.

A great caregiver pocessess patience, love, and dedication. These are all the qualities I believe I process. I have always had a passion for helping others and enjoy every bit of it. I am most proud of my great work history. I am very dependable and have only not been able to work a scheduled date twice in 5 years.

I became a caregiver because I enjoy taking care of those who can no longer do for themselves. I also became a caregiver because I thought that it would be the perfect stepping stone for nursing. I love being a caregiver because I enjoy taking care of people and helping others. I also enjoy how personal the work is, one can really get to know the patient and family. I am proud of everything I have accomplished in my profession however the one thing that means the most is not even 6 months into my career I was given the position of team leader, this means all new teams members were orientated by me and my professional opinion was valued during evaluations. Personally I am a very outgoing person who loves to be involved. I am a very hard working and reliable person and love working on my own, which is why I believe home health would be the perfect position for me. I understand that regardless of age and needs the transition of having a caregiver is difficult for family members, therefore my job is not only for the patient but for family members as well. I hope that you will allow me to be apart of your life transition as I am excited for you to be apart of mine.

I started as a caregiver after I left teaching with CPS. Caregiving has become a passion for me. I am honored to be able to help other's. I take pride in having high standards, especially when caring for others. I know how important it is to keep clients in their own home. I love that I can help people, especially those in the end stages of life. I am especially proud to have cared for 2 family members in their last months/years and have learned a lot. I continue to be willing/interested in learning whatever I can. I am proud of everything I've learned and taking that knowledge with me to each of my clients. I treat every client with the same care, love, respect, dignity and privacy that I would want to be treated with. Each client is unique and I make sure to tailor my care to THEIR needs/wants. I truly enjoy being a caregiver and think of it as more than just a job; it's a dedicated lifestyle.

Hi! I have worked in a nursing home for about 4 years now as a CNA. I absolutely love caring for others. If I can put a smile on someone's face when they aren't necessarily feeling their best or make them feel like they have someone they can talk to and trust I know I've made a difference. It is truly one of the most rewarding parts of my job. I have always been extremely patient. I am compassionate, caring, reliable and very responsible. I can assure you your loved ones will be well taken care of! .. Pay is definitely negotiable.

Hello, My name is Angelic Washington . I became a caregiver 10 years ago when my grandma was 84 years old and diagonoised with dementia . It was very hard for my grandpa to care for her alone. My mom and I took care of her until she passed away at 94 years old. During that time I also took care of another dementia patient for 5 years . Elizabeth was a part of my extended family .Her family treated me as their own . Her daughter was able to leave the home for 8 hours a day to work and know her mom was in the best care . I stayed with her until she passed away .

I became a care giver because I wanted to have a job where I would be helping people with the abilities I have. I have experience in many areas of patient care. I have worked as a certified nurses aid for the last 22 years in an infirmary for retired nuns.I can tell you that I really do like the work that I do and I look forward to continue in my chosen field.

I gained my CNA certification in April 2010. I worked in a hospital for 4 years on a Cardiac Floor. I performed vital signs, hourly rounds, Activities of daily living, changed linens, and bed baths. While working there i was trained to perform EKG testing and certified to draw blood. After having my son i decided to move to the home health field to get my desired hours and not lose out on spending time with my son.
