As a social worker I believe everyone, regardless of ability, has the right to live their best life. Sometimes we face barriers that keep us from being as independent as possible, in our own home. Sometimes, we are reluctant to accept that to remain independent in our homes we need a helping hand. Grandparents, parents, family members, close family friends place themselves at greater risk by avoiding or refusing help. It is fear of the unknown. It is the uncertainty of knowing where to start. Allow me the opportunity to be the one to help find what matters most for your loved one to make it easier to travel the path of successfully aging in place.

I have Empathy and compassion and love to assist people in anyway I can . As a child I always Displayed the desire to help Those that may not be physically or mentally Able to complete things on their own. Some of the things that I enjoy most about being a caregiver is seeing the smile on peoples face and just making their life a little bit happier.

I love people and human interaction; I have cared for several elderly people and particularly enjoy this population. I give one hundred percent and enjoy siversity

I learned to appreciate and enjoy being a Caregiver after my Grandmother and Grandfather became ill and unable to care for themselves. My grandfather suffered from Alzheimer's and my grandmother suffered from Dementia and Hypertension. I was the closest to them (they raised me ) so it was only fitting for me to care for them when they could no longer care for themselves independently. I cared for them until they both passed away. After which I perused a position within the Caregivers/ HHCA field. I found it To be very rewarding to be able to assist and care for some very special people.

I am compassionate about the care that I provide. I have been a caregiver & certified for over 12 years. What inspired me to be in this field was in nursing school, I was told " the best nurses are cna's first!" I agree to the fullest! I am currently in school @ Wayne State University for respiratory therapy. I have experience with alzhemier,dementia, TBI's,hospice,pediatrics,as well as patients on ventilators & tube feeding. Daily,I enjoy sharing my knowledge & experience while helping others to the best of my abilities.

Caregiving provides me with joy and satisfaction in knowing that I can make a positive difference for someone else. I am a mother of three teenage sons and I was an elemenatary and middle school teacher for 20 years. I left my career as a teacher during the pandemic when my family and I decided to make a lifestyle change. We are from the Metro Detroit area, but we decided that our cottage in Northern Michigan is where we are all happiest. In 2021 we officially made East Jordan our home and it was the best choice we could've made.

I am an outgoing individual and a good listener. I have extensive experience in caring for the elderly. I'm a good worker, reliable and thorough. Besides my two adult offspring, the thing I am proudest of is that I graduated first in my class (of 250 people) with a gpa of 3.8 Also, I attended Ross Mefical School in 1986 for Medical Assistant.

I am very compassionate when it comes with caring for others. I love children especially. I, myself , have a son who is sixteen years old. I also am a step mother. I have at least two young nephews and one young niece that I truly love. One thing that I enjoy most about being a caregiver is making one's day. My personal achievement that I am proud of is that I had develop strong relationships with those whom I love.

My Great Grandmother moved to Michigan from Alabama, at times she needed someone to sit with her whilst my grandparents ran errands. I enjoyed the time spent with her. A lot of geriatric patients have little to no family or they are always too busy to stop by and help them. Me being able to help them when they are in need gives me great satisfaction. You get a great deal of knowledge from the people receiving the caregiving and it's absolutely amazing.

I am a loving caring giving person. I am friendly and engaging positive I am honest open minded and willing to do what is necessary to complete my job what attracts me about being a caregiver is being able to help the elderly to live a independent Lifestyle. Well I enjoy the most is assisting a person to have and become their full potential. My most proudest achievement is getting a degree in college and continuing education

I am compassionate helping others that can't help themselves, especially when they don't have families or health aides to help with their needs. I am reliable and dependable as well. My attraction for caregiving began when I cared for my elderly father after he had a stroke 15 years ago for 7 years until he passed, he was bedridden. No nurse needed and without the help of my siblings. I enjoy putting a smile on my patients face and letting them know that someone cares for them sincerely. An achievement that I'm proud of is knowing that my patients love me and always appreciate the care I provide for them.

I enjoy being a caregiver because I like being around people and helping out !! I took care of a lady that had Alzheimer's she was a super awesome person to be with !!
