I became a caregiver to make the lives of others easier and more joyful. I love bringing a sense of hope and purpose to each person I meet. I'm currently working on my bsn rn and love what I do. I've got a warm smile and a bubbly personality. I'm a great listener and even better mentor if needed.

I have over 17 years of experience in being a caregiver/care provider in nursing home, assisted living, geri-psych, hospice, and in home. I have always had a passion for being a caregiver. I take pride in my work and the care of others. My favorite setting to work with was geri-psych and being with dementia and Alzheimer's because these individuals need more attention, more one on one and I have developed the patience and understanding to have the heart and mind to care for them.

Hi there! I'm a kind, patient, and fun loving person. Taking care of people is my passion and it always has been. I have 10 younger siblings that I've helped care for since I was little so caring is in my nature. I come from a family of of nurses, and I plan to become one myself! I have extensive experience with dementia as I've mainly worked in memory care facilities and I have taken several classes on dementia patients. I have also had a family member with Alzheimer's. I've been nurse delegated with special focus on diabetes. I have a background check through the State Of Oregon. Taking care of seniors warms my hearts and honestly brings me so much happiness. To me, it is so much more then a job. I get to make their day better and help them through a possibly difficult time. I also get to have fun with them and learn things from them too!

I have always wanted to help people, I wanted to make them smile and feel safe. I enjoy getting to know new people and helping them have the best possible life. My proudest moments are those involving my family and friends. I have always been passionate about caring for those around me. I have worked towards always being reliable, honest, empathic, patient and outgoing. I'm here looking to help, provide companionship and care for those in need.

My personality traits or expertise that would help me be a great caregiver are my bubbly personality, my honesty and my integrity. I am someone who is very compassionate and caring when it comes to providing care to others. I am reliable and have excellent communication skills both verbally and personably. What attracted me to this caregiving position was the details that were in the original job listing. The job listing was very descriptive and from what it sounds, it seems like I would get along and understand the client on a personal level. I like interacting with others and I really enjoy helping others. What I enjoy the most about caregiving is building that relationship with the client and getting to know them. It feels really special when you know that you can help someone and make their life just a little bit more easier. Providing that care and creating that bond is special, It takes a lot of time, but in the end it's always worth it. One personal achievement that I am specifically proud of is going to school and taking all of the courses I've been participating in. I never thought that I was ever going to be one of those kids that went college and graduated but I am extremely close to getting my degree and have maintained good grades despite all of the bumps in the road that I've overcame.

I am a graduate student studying occupational therapy at Pacific University. I believe that older adults deserve quality care from trained individuals who are dedicated to promoting the wellness and livelihood of those they care for. Through a combination of school, work, education, and internships I have experience working with a wide variety of clients, diagnoses, ages, and cultures. I am a patient individual who is both reliable and flexible, and I value being present and connecting with others.

I would be a great caregiver because I am kind and respect full to elderly people. I am a very good listener if people just want to sit and talk to me I am available. Also I am a pretty good driver so if people need to take a cruise downtown I would be the first person to give them rides I love driving.

What really helps me be a good care giver is that I genuinely love being around kids. When you love your job you don't really look at it as a job. All the kids and elderly I have cared for I built great relationships with. That's what I enjoy most about the job. That relationship and bond that I have with whom I'm caring for.

I enjoy helping people in any way I can, I work hard, but have boundaries as to what I should to physically in terms of weight and duration.

I have been in the Healthcare field for over 15 years I enjoyed making a difference in people's lives helping others I I am a non-denominational Christian. I am outgoing and detail oriented I love what I do and I want to make a difference

Hi, my name is Angie. I have been in the nursing industry for over 20 years. I began at age 20 as a CNA 2 working in a nursing and memory care setting. I later worked 7 years fulltime in the ICU. I spent a few years working in labor and delivery and that helped me decide I wanted to make a difference and help others try to keep their independence by staying in their own home. I was absolutely not happy in 2012 when my dad was in a SNF and the care was not desired. He passed away at my home comfortably. I am a strong advisor for seniors and I am good with difficult clients and family members. I have a current CPR, BLS, 1 st Aid, food handling card and am hospice certified. I have reliable transportation, insurance and enjoy running errands, companionship, cooking, light housekeeping and overall helping others. I have excellent references and am seeking 1 full time position with a lot of hours or 2 part time. Ideally I would love a live in situation. My location shows Aumsville. I also have an apartment in Sherwood so the PDX, Salem and Albany are fine as long as it's a good fit

I have worked in a medical field for 22 years and the last 5 years I have cared more towards private home care. I enjoy providing private home health in a patient's comfortable setting and gives a more intimate environment for recovery.. I have a great attitude I am positive and work well with even the hardest of patience I have compassion and understand it with knowing how it is difficult at times when our health declines. I have great interpersonal skills and I have great leadership I am able to work on my own with little to no training needed with most cases I've been very diverse and worked with all aspects of patients from recovery therapy therapy cancer treatment and hospice care . I enjoy helping patients recover giving them skills that can help better their life and make things simpler and I also like helping and assisting families during last stages so they are prepared to know what to expect most importantly giving a patient their dignity and respect and compassion at all times. I am fully vaccinated for covid 19 and also own a cleaning business so housekeeping is alsp no problem

Outgoing, caring, good listener, multitasking and good companion

I am very compassionate about my work. I love being a caregiver and helping those who need it. I have been a caregiver for about 4 years and plan on continuing to be a caregiver while I finish school for my nursing degree.

I have cared for many people in the last eighteen years and have supplemented my care knowledge with a formal education to better serve and understand the wide-variety of people that seek my services. I am currently taking an INELDA certification and will be a certified death doula by summer 2021.

Making a difference in the lives of adults and seniors is my calling. For six years, I've been privileged to support their independence and well-being. I provide transportation, personal care, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and specialized dementia care. I'm patient and calm, adapting to changing routines and de-escalating stressful situations. I handle confusion, agitation, or behavioral changes with grace. I communicate with families through written daily reports and verbal updates, always following their preferred method. Respecting independence is key to building connections. I have a college degree and am certified in CPR and First Aid. My goal is to be a reliable and positive presence in your loved one's life, offering peace of mind to you and your family. I'm comfortable with pets, and I look forward to bringing my dedication and skills to your home.

My aspiration for becoming a nurse was influenced by my mother. Taking care of others has been a crucial part of my life ever since I was young. I lost my mom in a hospital because all the nurses were on strike and there was no one to take care of her. I want to be a nurse because, nurses are the best people that I have ever known. They are compassionate, patient, and empathetic people. Having worked as a CNA, taking care/helping on a day-to-day basis makes me happy. It makes me feel I did a good deed. I am left with a feeling of purpose, knowing I am needed in someone's life. The prospect of becoming a nurse motivates me to overcome life's obstacles, it makes me work even harder to accomplish my goals. I firmly believe that to ease the pain and suffering of another is the most noble act I can perform. I am prepared to see a wide variety of circumstances, some of them unpleasant. I hope I can provide comfort and care that will enable, maintain and improve someone's health physically, mentally, and emotionally. The close relationships I build, are what keeps me motivated.
