ALS Caregivers in Prospect - 17 caregivers found

I am known to be one of the most caring and thoughtful person around, caring for people takes patience and understanding, i have been often commended for my warm and friendly personality. a great caregiver makes sure that a person/resident is well kept and properly groomed and taken care of in all way possible and i do take pride in doing good for each individual so without a doubt that makes me a great caregiver.

I have been a caregiver for 12yrs traveling over the country.Currently with Griswold Care but not on any assignment. I did registered with Medicaid and I do have my NPI number and Medicaid number.

Actually, I am a Registered Nurse. Characteristics: dependable, honest, independent, optimistic, hard-working, encouraging, a problem solver, a good listener and communicator. I became interested in health care when I was 10 years old and in the hospital over Christmas having had an emergency appendectomy. My mom worked for a doctor (earning $1 an hour) and was always telling us about interesting cases and teaching us strange sounding medical terminology. Most of my nursing career was in a Medical Intensive Care Unit at Ohio State University Medical Center. After that exciting career, I started working in Home Health in 2008. I enjoy working 1 on 1 with my clients, offering encouragement, seeing that they are receiving proper care, and hearing their life stories.

I am going on my third year of college, and my third college as well. I am finishing up my surgical nursing degree at Marion Technical College with a Surgical Technician certification and a phlebotomy certification as well. I have spent time in caring for my grandmother while she was in and out of the hospital, and I will provide compassionate care to those who need. My job as a future nurse is to provide comfort and love to patients varying different health conditions. My ideal job profession in the future is to work in hospice as well. When I was younger, I had a heart disease and my life-long goal is to give back to nurses and patients with 110% passionate and sympathetic care.

A little about me! I am a single mom to 2 kids , 5 y.o and 2 y.o. I have been in healthcare for 6 years , I have my STNA license along with my EMT-B certification. I have worked in a long term care facility, also in the hospital environment learning about each speciality .

For me, being a caregiver isn't just a career. It's my calling in life. I feel as though it's what I was put here to do. My very first job at age 18 was as a caregiver for a lady with MS. I cared for her as a live in for nearly three years with one day off weekly. I then moved to direct care for disabled individuals and have accumulated several years experience. I am certified in first aid/ CPR, medication administration, insulin trained, and have a wide path of experience to fall back on. I was also caregiver for my mother for five years until she passed from ALZ. I am currently attending college studying Human and Social Services to better provide for those I work with and for. I believe that being a caregiver requires a special individual, just as special as those I care for. I have always felt that the individuals I have met and worked with have each been a blessing in their own way and I am the lucky one for having them in my heart and life. I view my clients as family, nothing less. I am dedicated, sincere, patient, full of good humor, not easily upset, and my greatest joy is making others happy. That's the biggest benefit of all. Thanks for listening! - Lori

I absolutely love being a home healthaid/caretaker. Its definitely a job made for people like me! Im a mother and im also the oldest of 4! I love helping others and allowing them to stay at home instead of having to move to a special home. People love to be independent and i try to help them do that as much as possible! I also do things like workout with patients and read to them. Im very caring and loving.
