Southern New Hampshire Univers ...

At the age of 10, I landed my first job as summer companion to Catherine DeForest, my maternal grandmother. Unsurprisingly, the work of companion to the family matriarch required copious amounts of physical labor - my grandmother was elderly - but the experience also involved inklings of a new and unexpected pleasure - the gratifications of responsibility. My grandmother, who was from New York, arrived at Glendale Cottage on Lake Winnipesaukee, on the first day of summer. Over a period of 12 years, I joined her there. I cleared the acorns from the grasses of her double croquet court, hiked each morning, shopping list in one hand, bills and change in the other, to the corner store to buy her groceries, and rowed her, my grandmother did not drive an automobile, across Smith's Cove to tea at the homes of neighbors. Her training served me well. From my grandmother I learned to be a responsible member of a household. I learned to be good company. Still under my grandmother's spell I enjoy being secretary and companion to the mobile elderly.

It makes me smile daily and this is why I love my profession!

I am very emapthetic, flexible, caring person. I became a caregiver because I want to give back and making a difference in someone else's life.

I am a very compassionate and understanding caregiver. I listen to the needs of my clients and can give reference on the two clients I faithfully cared for for long term. I have worked for over twenty years as a caregiver, before I was paid to do it. I cared for my disabled sister who had and have seizures and still does rely completely on others for everything. I cared for my mothers infected wounds from diabetes and also her arthritis plus checked her blood sugar and keept her from going into diabetic shock. I can deduce diabetic shock and can recognize an infected wound. I know how to work a g-t-tube and change depends for adults. Plus I have experience log rolling and using a Hoyt lift. I have cared for a quadriplegic through Maxim Health Care as a respite care worker when I first turned eighteen years old. This care allowed me to learn the lift training, feeding tube usage, log rolling and also administering breathing treatments. I am also IHSS certified.

What attracted me to being a care is that I can make a difference in someone else live gives me great joy. What I enjoy most about being a care giver is seeing the joy is their face and knowing that I help achieve that.

I'm very patient and I love being a caregiver. I love that I am making people feel good even when they are feeling down.

Hi My name is Tammy and I have been working with people with all different kinds of health issues and disabilities for the last 5 years. I am certified CNA and have case managment experience. I am reliable and always want to make sure my client is taken care of and is happy at the end of the day.

My name is Samona . I'm 26year old I just move to Georgia a year ago. I'm very hard worker and care aide . I enjoy what I do I'm also in school for healthcare administration .

What makes me a good caregiver is my personality and my work ethic. I am likely to find things to do to keep myself busy and keep my client busy with things they are able to do. I have worked with people with all ranges of abilities and I can easily adapt to new situations. I tend to find the silver lining in situations and my clients like that I am just an overall happy person. I know when to encourage and when to back off as to not exhaust my clients when they are trying to complete an activity. I like having open communication with family members so they can stay up to date on their loved one's progress.

I enjoy working with people and most enjoy jobs where I have one-on-one interaction with others. I enjoyed taking care of elder family members and would like to help others in this way. I like older adults and feel I can get along well with a variety of elders. I like doing work that has the potential to make a difference in someone’s life. I like doing a variety of tasks in a day. I don’t ever say, “that’s not my job” but instead like pitching in to do whatever is needed. I like making someone smile and doing little things to make a person’s day better. I take pride in I pay attention to detail. I don’t want a desk job; I'd like being physical in my job and using my body as well as my brain. I'm seeking a career with growing opportunities. I don’t want to invest in many years of formal education but I'm are willing to learn new skills and take continuing education to do your job well. I feel that when I'm are older, you’d want someone like yourself there to help you if you need help.

I'm a very caring person that wants to make a difference, big or small. I spent years taking care of my elderly grandparents while my grandfather was terminally ill and while my grandmother was going through mourning at his loss. Even though I no longer live with her, I check in on her regularly and make sure someone is there to help her when she needs it. The best part of being a caregiver is being able to help someone when they need it most. That can make even the smallest difference in someone's life, just being someone willing to help. Honestly, my proudest achievements come from elsewhere. I gained a second degree black belt when I was young, and I graduated top five of my class from my first college.

I am currently looking for Part time work ,while I continue my education in sociology. I have experience in the caregiving so I'm just looking for something new.

I'm caring and energetic. I'm highly motivated in all that I do.

Hi, my name is Kierra and I have been a caregiver for 3 years, but don't let my short time being a caregiver fool you. I am an EXCELLENT caregiver! I am a patient, trustworthy, dependable, empathetic, diligent caregiver. I love caregiving, my favorite part is making my clients happy, and reminding them that they still have a purpose and are needed. I truly believe that the amount of good, quality care that is given, plays a huge role in the healing process, and keeps those we love with us longer. One day I want to be a geriatrics nurse. In Colorado I went to school and finished my CNA course with a 4.0 GPA. I will be starting online schooling to get my general courses out of the way so when I go to nursing school I won't have so much on my plate. Anyway, that's a little bit about me!

I am a highly motivated person. I am detailed oriented and will make sure that I do my best to give the best care possible. I have been in the field for many years, which has given me such great experience. I have learned a great deal and have been able to apply that to my quality work that I give. I knew when I was a child that I would one day be a caregiver. When I helped take care of my grandma who had Alzheimer's. I immediately fell in love with the feeling of giving. I am most proud of how far I have come in this business and all I have to offer.

My name is Amanda and I'm a Certified Nurses Aide with Caregiver experience. I'm a Compassionate and Helpful person who loves helping others.
