Silverado High School

Hello there ;) My name is Shawna and I am a mother of 5 children ranging in ages from 4-16. I have a caring and compassionate nature. Throughout my childhood I spent many years caring for my ill mother. Into my adulthood, I spent many more years caring for my grandmother during her heroic journey with cancer. I found great pleasure and purpose being there in such an intimate setting for such amazing women. I seek to be there for others as a helper and friend. I have a good ear, a soft heart and the strength of a bull!

I care about my patients by making them feel comfortable as possible as I can. I like to put a smile on their faces and bring nothing but joy and positive energy. I am not just here to work for them but also be their friend and be the person they turn to when they need someone the most.

I love being a caregiver because I love helping people. I grew up taking care of my grandmother who had dementia and my sister who has has cerebral palsy . I am very responsible. I love to cook and clean and talk with my patients.

I love interacting with people, I'm a complete social butterfly with a longing for helping anyone and everyone I can. I am a mother and a wife who's just looking for something more fulfilling in my life. I would love to help people on personal levels and am willing to go above and beyond to get the job done. Cooking, cleaning, bathing are things I'm used to with my daughter and husband. I also took care of my grandmother who had stage 4 cancer and diabetes for the last year of her life. I understand I may not be the most qualified but if you give me the opportunity I will not disappoint, I'm a hard worker, quick learner, and very detail oriented.

What makes me a great caregiver is that im always on top of my duties to make the patient happy and satisfied. I became a categiver for so many reasons. I love helping people in need and just making them feel wanted. I always do my best at making them feel confortable and good taking care of.

I became a caregiver about 2 years ago at a facility and I absolutely love it . I love being able to turn somebody day around from bad to good, and to make my clients happy . I enjoy hearing there stories from back in there day and also helping them if needed.

I became a Care giver after finishing high school giving care to my elderly grandmother who needed help with bathing, eating, dressing and grooming. I also helped with light ahouse work and laundry as well as a companion for her. After she passed I continued to give care to elderly women. I found it very passionate to help and be a companion to these women who some of them didn't have any family or friends. I take pride in making them feel comfortable and safe in their homes as well as provide them with a friend.
