Alzheimer's Disease Caregivers in Binghamton - 59 caregivers found

I believe what makes me a great caregiver is the experience I have. I have 5 years experience working for an agency and independently. I have significant experience with hospice care, dementia, Alzheimers , Parkinson's, COPD, cancers, companion care and the general everyday care of those that can't do things for themselves anymore like cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping and showers. I always keep medical books in the homes of my clients/patients. On every shift I always take blood pressure , temperature and oxygen so that Vitals can be monitored regularly for any changes. The medical books will keep logs of daily living such as any Dr appointments, mood changes, medications, vitals, daily diet and activities. It's important to catch/detect any change in health. Communication is big with me on keeping everyone on the same page so that the best care can be given at all times. I'm a registered health care aid, . CPR/First Aide certified. I became a health care aide because I believe our loved ones get better care at home from one on one care opposed to a nursing home.

I have worked in this field for many years. I am knowledgeable with Dementia./ Elderly care. Helping people is my passion. The enjoyment you get from this is not measurable. I love to cook, bake and involve my clients in either taking them for a drive, shopping, playing cards or even sitting while chatting having tea/coffee. I advocate for my clients when needed and assist with daily activities. For me They are not only clients they are like family .

I am available for any shift days, nights and weekends . clean driving record and clean criminal back ground. I am a veteran of the US Navy.

I'm a 23 year old mom of 1. I've worked in the field for 7 years. Between my own family members, long term care facilities, and in home health care.

I started out with helping take care of my grandmother while she was sick with cancer when I was younger, from then I moved on to helping others. I love helping others with things so they can still feel independent!

Hello. I would like to take a minute and tell you a little bit about why I became a CNA and caregiver. First of all I enjoy everything there is to be about caring for someone's loved ones, I feel that just being with them and making sure they get the best out of life and meeting their needs is a big positive step to them being happy. I was very excited when I passed my exam to become a CNA and knew I was gonna make a difference in patients lives. I take my job very serious and make sure I fulfill every aspect of my patients daily lives. I have alot of experience in caregiving and CNA work that I would like to share my expertise with others. Im trained in just about everything that it takes to be a caregiver and CNA, I enjoy my profession and I will never stop learning every piece of knowledge I learn is beneficial for my patients.

I've always loved being able to work with clients that need a little extra help. It makes my day even better. I love socializing with my clients and helping them with anything that I can. I love their smiling faces. It melts my heart. I look forward to going to work every day to see them

What makes me a great caregiver I've learned to hear & listen as well have compassion. All my teen age life I wanted to care for elderly & children, I started working with individuals with develop disabilities ages range 18yrs - 70yrs, I thought to myself this is great later I came across working with senior citizens my heart, soul and mind was complete I found my goal this has been a passion and hearts desire. what I love most about being a care giver is being there physically, mentally, spiritually to comfort to have an ear and hand to help make another client day better than the day before. My personal achievement I'm proud of knowing that I made another persons day.

I'm a mother of 6 I'm kind compassionate and empathetic and patient..I work hard and I give my all in any situation to make it better.

My favorite thing about being a caregiver is seeing them feel comfortable and smile when I am caring for them & attending to what they may not be able to do themselves. One my personal achievements I am proud of is, getting my CNA in 2020 & my CPR in 2022.

I love my job, I love caring for people and I enjoy there stories, and to be there for someone knowing if it's a smile a day or week it's well worth it. To see them enjoy life. The way they should . I like being outside, shopping, cooking, learning the old ways and other peoples ways, gardening, baking, and also doing crafts.
