My personality is attentive and outgoing, I like to keep company and talk with any resident I take care of. What attracted me to be a home caregiver was the fact that I would be able to take care of people and keep them company when they most need them. What I enjoy about being a caregiver is I get to meet new people and learn about them also the social aspect as I am always around people.

My mom was battling cancer and she had a stroke and needed some help so I became a caregiver to assist her so she can recover when she got better I realize I wanted to help older people become successful buy becoming a caregiver I love helping people on a daily I have a good heart my biggest thing that I am proud of is going to college and bettering myself for me and my children.

I am a 24 year old woman, with a passion for helping people. My dream job is becoming a Psychiatric RN for a hospital. I'd do it for free if I could. I volunteered at Centennial hospital, in the NICU department, and at a Hospice care, the age, mental/medical state, race, gender etc. does not matter to me, I just love helping humans. My father, mother, and grandmother all have been caregivers, and as a kid I sometimes joined them and thoroughly enjoyed it, because I always got to learn something new, or hear a good story. Being with seniors brings me happiness, because they have great life experience, and offer the best advice. I also have a lot of involvement in helping the elderly because I have all my grandparents, including my great grandparents on my fathers side of the family. A personal achievement that I'm proud of would either have to be passing my Real Estate course, or getting a job in Poland and successfully navigating through Europe on my own.

I'm a very loving and and easy going person. I love to make others laugh, and I'm constantly laughing. What attracted me to being a caregiver is watching my grandmother get missed treated in nursing home and not having someone who truly cares for her to help her on a daily. I enjoy the fact that I can bond with my patient, and be there for them . I am very proud that I am a MEDICAL ASSISTANT, I'm also in school going for REGISTERED NURSE.

Hello i would like to take this moment and briefly explain who i am and why iv chosen this profession. I started attending to the elderly's needs seven years ago when my grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. During that time i learned to patiently join the journey within the disease. After my grandmother proceeded on to glory i thought i would never do this work again but shortly after i realized its my calling i've dedicated my gift to various companies such as Sunrise Senior Living, Maxim Health Services also Visiting Angel. As time has gone by and my experience also confidence has grown i decided to independently take on my journey as a Compassionate Caregiver. Within my experience i have become and expert in meal preparation, hygiene, hoyer lifts/transferring, toileting dressing, bathing also assisting with medication. I'm a caretaker who takes pride and is very confident in what i do i am compassionate, hardworking and considerate also eager to serve you.

Helping people is my purpose in life. I believe it is the most rewarding act a person can do for another. My mother has Alzheimer's and I have taken care of her this past year. She is now in a memory care facility. I am in my 50's and I have had two careers in my life. I was an interior designer for Ethan Allen for many years and I loved it. I decided to sell real estate and was a licensed Realtor for several years. I do not have any caregiving experience as a job, but as a wife, mother, and grandmother, I really do have plenty of caregiving experience. I am ready, willing and able to do the following for you or your loved one. This list is not limited. • Assist with dressing, bathing, grooming and toileting • Provide support in handling basic household tasks such as cooking, cleaning, doing laundry and ironing • Provide assistance and encouragement with walking and light exercises • Run errands, buy groceries, pick up prescriptions, and pay bills • Medication reminder • Escort you or your loved one to social activities such as gatherings, dinners, picnics or parties • Provide transportation to doctor’s appointments, beautician appointments, etc. • Observe changes in behavior or medical condition and report changes immediately to doctor or family members

I love providing home care giving services to those that would otherwise not be able to do so. I have always enjoyed helping people so I know I am doing the right thing.Being a caregiver for 5years has helped me in so many ways, I have worked in Hospitals, Nursing home Facilities, Private Duty, etc. I love what I do in helping each client I've ever worked with. Taking care of sick people that needs my help gives me joy in my heart and it let me know they need people to work with them that care.My personal achievement that i'm proud of now is that i am presently a student trying to enroll into a pharmacy school which has been my dream job since i was little.I am from Africa, married with one kid. love working with poeple from different cultures and i learn alot of different things in a short amount.

I became a caregiver because I love helping people. I am very compassionate, caring, and attentive. I have been caring for clients for over 3 years. I feel the need to help people who have trouble caring for themselves fully. I would like to be a part improving a clients quality of life.

I have first hand experience when it comes to caregiving. Last year I had a grandma who went through surgery and had to physically and mentally recover for almost a full year. Fortunately I was able to gain experience on how to truly care for a loved one and want to provide that care to others.

I AM AN GREAT CAREGIVER BECAUSE I AM A GREAT LISTENER, A FRIEND, A PERSON THAT YOU CAN CRY WITH AND COOK AND SOON I WILL BECOME ONE OF YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS. ALSO I AM VERY OUT GOING.

When I began servicing the elderly in 1990, in Las Vegas, many jobs began as housekeeping and gradually moved into care giving. As the years went on with my clients, their needs changed. I enjoy assisting others, I am very patient, observant and attentive. My references can attest to my honesty, dependability and hard working ways. I take my work seriously and am proud of the relationships I have maintained over the years.

1. I took up Bachelor of Science-Nursing (Philippines)back 2004-2007. Then I graduated as Nursing Assistant here at College of Southern Nevada at December 2010. Had a few months experience on 2010 on home residential care. 2. I am very passionate taking care of elders. I did took care of my grandparents when I was back home in the Philippines. 3. Having been able to go to school at the United States at my age has been an achievement. It gave me more confidence to face life's challenges and value every single person I met. 4. I am an Asian single mom 41 yrs old born and race in the Philippines and became a US citizen at 2013. I live with my parents and with my 19 yr old son. Took a Bachelor's degree in Nursing but never had the chance to graduate, because I was given the opportunity to work at the Sands Expo Convention Center as a Safety Administrator. I am now unemployed because my position was eliminated and will be willing to take care of the elders again.
