I've had a passion for personal care since I was 15 years old. I lived in Bolivia and volunteered at a convent where the nuns picked up abandoned and homeless elderly and took them to a beautiful nursing home to care for them. There a nurse who knew I loved medicine, took me under her wings and trained me as a CNA. I became a PA in the 1990, but I got a job as a care giver during the time I was home schooling my kids to works night on the side besides my PA work. I love the elderly. I also was blessed to be able to care for my mother who had terminal cancer and finally passed after 3 years. Last year I had the opportunity to work in my field in a Nursing Home and loved every minute of it. I am currently working slowly on becoming a Registered Aromatherapist taking a class a year. I am certified to do Aromatherapy light massage.

I am a current student looking to go to PA school in the future. I have a bachelor's in Kinesiology and Health Promotion. I am a very caring and personal individual. I will always work hard and do my best to assist in anyway possible. I am an EMT with a FL state license and a national registry license.

Caregiving has been a large part of my life from a young age. I was lucky enough to have helped care and tend to my great-grandparents in their 90's for many years while I grew up. As a student at the University of Kentucky I first majored in pre-med studies until junior year when I established that I would pursue health administration. I began my first position as a caregiver (home health aide) as a freshman in college with an individual who is paraplegic. The job entailed taking care of another human-being completely dependent on my skills as an able-bodied person. Not only have I acquired experience caregiving for this individual and others alike for four years and counting, I have also babysat and been a nanny many times during and in between. The other position I hold dear to me is not only working with people but working with animals as well. I have had extensive experience with horses, dogs, and cats from the various farms and vet clinics I have interned for. As a multitasker and a fun loving and caring individual I feel I am an ideal candidate for your position.

I went to work for Vista Retirement Facility with all levels of care, a few years ago. I was sales and marketing, but I did a lot with the residents. I liked working with them, and then I had to bring my Mother to live with me until her death. After that I took care of my former husband that had Parkinsons. I was responsible for his care even though I was not living with him. He died in November. Next I got my real estate license but I have been thinking of going back into home care for certain people. I also have a friend doing it as well. I am very kind and a caring person and like that kind of work. I wold like to do it again with the right company. My daughter is a doctor with Scripps in Vista, it seems to run in our family to be 'the helpers'.

I like taking care of people and making there life better. I started in this career when my endlaws died and my brother- in law had to have help. I love helping people.

Hello my name is Julie, I am a sophomore in college attending the University of Kentucky. Majoring in nursing. I am a well experienced caregiver. That extends from volunteering in nursing homes as well as assisted living. I am CPR certified. I am familiar with a variety of medical conditions. I do know how to handle any medical situation. My passion for helping others branches from my family. As I grew up I was surrounded by nurses. My grandmother was a va nurse. So you could often find me visiting with the residents. As I got older my church started doing a lot of volunteering around the community. We would help with small things such as home cooked meals. To as big as house repairs. I have a strong passion for helping others. I think that making someone smile and helping them achieve any goal. Makes any situation better any task is never to much. I feel as if making someone feel good and well cared for is over all a very good feeling.

I am a caregiver because, after working in the healthcare field for 20 years and taking care of my own mother for five years, I understand what families and individuals need. I have knowledge of the medical, social, and community resources that a family or individual needs to make the right choices for their needs. I have also provided direct care for elders who have physical and memory deficits that put them at risk. I enjoy being a care giver because I know that I have the knowledge, skills and ability to provide exceptional care and support for both my clients and their families. I am proud of my efforts on behalf of my clients and their families. I have always taken what I do as a privilege and a responsibility to challenge myself to go the extra mile in all that I do. A major achievement in my life was my ability to complete 2 college degrees on academic scholarships. I am a senior myself. I am in excellent health and enjoy a wide variety of interests and activities. Before I retired the first time, I held a variety of management positions as well as direct care positions. I choose to do caregiving as I have several other second career options. I enjoy reading, crafts, walking, art, movies, plays, live music, cooking, sports (especially college basketball). I have 2 cats although I enjoy all animals . I enjoy gardening, drives on the Blue Ridge Parkway and other scenic areas. I enjoy my family and spend time with my sister who lives close by. I

I am a dedicated Christian and caregiver with experience taking care of my ex-wife's 95 year old Mother. I became a caregiver in my original employment out of college and taking care of my Mother-in-law. I feel it is a Christian's duty to help all those souls along life's journey and be compassionate as well as empathetic making their road a bit if not very much more meaningful with less stress, anxiety and pain. Because it may very well be the most meaningful calling of the Spirit. That I am a man of integrity who strives each day to be more Christ-like. I am a Pharmacist by education who left the field for Industry due to the advent of computers. I saved a young man's life many years ago in the practice of Pharmacy and believe that may have been the reason I was called to that path. I have utilized my education, training and experience to be highly successful in Industry and have since earned an advanced degree. If you are looking for cheap labor then simply delete my application for this job...but you get what you pay for...ask yourself are you really looking for the cheapest option for the person you love dearly in their last days. If you are looking for a person who is dedicated to making other soul's journeys less stressful and actually meaningful in the latter phase of the circle of life then you will not find a better candidate.
