Hello my name is Latoya and I have been a caregiver for 7 years. I love taking care of people especially if they can no longer do it themselves. Helping and encouraging them to be mobile if possible while listening and engaging conversation on topics that are most important to them. I have knowledge of and experience with Senior care in different environments such as one-on-one home health/companionship, retirement homes, and assisted living facilities. I am trained in a broad range of dynamics pertaining to but not limited to special needs. Intense hands-on training and focus in providing care for m.h.m.r/disabled/dementia/Alzheimer’s, and disease debilitating patients. I am trained C.N.A and I know how to use proper technique for transfer/ambulation to those that are physically challenged, and have mobility/barriers. Further knowledge includes use of basic lifting, Hoyer lift, and gate belts for those who are prone to falls. I do believe in charting the progress of my patients so that their family, physician's and loved one's can keep up with their every day care and any changes that may occur. I am professional and honor confidentiality. I have a current driver's license and automobile insurance. I am a non-smoker and prefer to work in a non-smoking environment, and I am comfortable working in a home who has pets as long as they do not bite. I have training in incontinence care and able to change adult briefs.

Am extremely calm and patient, a great listener. Well growing up, have experienced the other side of life to an extend and in future wish to open and orphanage and a comfortable facility for the retired so i decided to learn from scratch. Nothing is as fulfilling as putting a smile on someone's face. Being able to give a helping hand is what I enjoy most. Am proud of how compassionate I have become over time and most importantly bring comfortable to a dying love one with so much ease and love

I worked with a few medical facilities involving cancer and hematology issues as well as daily care and pain management. I've worked as a CNA for many years, worked for a few state schools taking care of sick elderly patients with all sorts of medical issues. I have a good background and care about people. I'm a people person and take care of everyone around me. I'm a caring person who is reliable and trustworthy. I have my own transportation.

I am an empathetic, compassionate, patient-focused home care assistant. I am self-directed with a high level of personal accountability coupled with astute judgement skills. I am a great in-home care provider as I listen to and connect with each client and cultivate well-being in the home.

I am a great caregiver because I've worked with both elderly and young adults. I help out my grandparents the most and being with them makes me want to help out other people. I am very patient and can get my grandpa to take his medicine even when he doesn't want to. I've always put a smile on a face and am easy to work with. I feel like the client should be happier when I leave then when I get there.

Since I was very young,I have always been a caring person, loved the Lord and continued to take my personality to different levels,I started nursing but raised my children instead but I became a nurses aide as well as a day care worker,I continued with nurses aide work in nursing homes,I did switch jobs quite a bit as I raised my children and often worked two but mum love has always been as a caretaker young and old,I have worked at a hospital and several nursing homes, done home health, and I am currently processing paperwork to continue nursing,

I take what I do above and beyond what is expected of me. When someone needs care I do my very best of their needs plus take extra innitive making sure the person is made comfortable in their own home. What attracted me to caregiving will have to be I feel I am natural carer for any one who might need someone that really cares. I do treat each and every one as if a part of my family ..as their family members. Again I try to go above and beyond for thoat extra care. What do I enjoy the most? Just being able have the time in showing the person in my charge the compassion they do deserve. My personal achievement will be when becoming full time at Sodalis then Resident Medication Aide..also being given the responsibility of training new hires

I have been a stay at home mom for the last 20 years. My only child is in College now and I would like to get a part time job that allows me to help others while making some income to help with my childs college.

I am a great caregiver because I am passionate about my job . This isn't just a job for me but a career . I enjoy helping and caring for anyone I come in contact with . I was first attracted to be being a caregiver after I cared for a loved one of mine . It made me realize their are many people in the world who deserve love and compasssion like they are your own family.

I became a caregiver 21 year ago after taking care of my grandmother during her time of sickness. I love helping others with the task in life that they need assistance with. After 21 years I am still working in the health field helping others and I love my job.

I was called to being a caregiver in 2016. I was looking to bring a deeper purpose to my life and started on the weekends to see how I would like it. By the beginning of 2017 I went full time, and working for an in home assistance company. Many clients like my bubbly, sweet, and cheerful disposition. I can however tailor my attitude accordingly to best fit my client. Though all have said this, I am consistent, loyal, and trustworthy. I'm not over bearing, or pushy, and always focused on my clients, not my phone. I specialize in Dementia care, and verbal abrasiveness doesn't make me run off. I know how to redirect behavior, and can calmly remove myself if need be from the situation. Many times I would return to the room and my client would have no recollection of the incident. I offer compassion, love and honesty, so it would be a pleasure to assist your loved one and a great opportunity to give them care they deserve.
