Hello, my name is Escalante Reed. Im a PCA and currently going to school to become a CNA, but I have been doing home health care for nine years. I'm certified in First Aid , CPR, Mandt, Level 1 Med Aide, Behavior Supports, and Fundamentals of ID/DD. I enjoyed my job and I enjoy caring for others. I care for others as if they were my family member. What attracted me to becoming a caregiver was once my grandmother got sick and i started caring for her. The way i cared for her is the way i care for the ones i work for. I'm very energetic and loving. I keep those around me smiling and laughing. Each time i walk into someone home or when i leave and they have a smile on their face i know i have completed my job for the day.

-I'm a great caregiver because of the compassion and empathy I show for others. I'm very patient , reliable, and trustworthy. -I knew that being a caregiver would be something I'd enjoy doing because i lived with my grandma and was her help around the house , seeing her able to relax and just enjoy my company was good for the both of us we became very close and it made me realize ,"this is something i could never get tired of doing". -The best part of being a caregiver is being trusted with the care of someones loved one , its hard to trust a stranger to care for your loved one as you would and gaining that trust is what helps make the job enjoyable because you know the family is comfortable and trust you with your care.
