Alzheimer's Disease Caregivers in Sycamore - 16 caregivers found

I'm a very compassionate, loving , kind, intelligent, loyal, dependable, well adjusted , hard working ,trustworthy woman. I have my Stna license. I have first aide . CPR. I've done caregiving since I graduated in 1996. I've always enjoyed knowing I'm making people smile and have a better day. It just takes one person to change the world. Especially with a smile.

I became a caregiver because I love to take care of people I enjoy meeting new people and I am dependable and reliable I like to make sure the client has what him or her needs I also like to let them do things for themselves as much as they can I am a good listener I do light housekeeping and errands and personal care I also like to take the clients for walks if the weather is nice I like being a caregiver because I like to give back and help whoever needs help.

I became a STNA when I was 16 with the intended goal to make a difference in people's lives. For the last 7 years I've cared for a lot of amazing people and I continue to meet and care for residents with the same goal as when I started - to make a difference in people's lives and to be a light in the healthcare industry. Meeting people from all over, listening to their stories and helping them in a challenging time in their lives is something I'm very proud to say I do almost everyday.

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.

I have been a caregiver for 3 years now and I can honestly say it is where my heart resides. I also just graduated with my Bachelors degree and plan on furthering my education to become an Occupational Therapist. Therefore, caring for people and improving a person's physical and mental health is what I want to do for the rest of my life. I am compassionate, empathetic, reliable and experienced. I'm great at what I do, because I truly enjoy it. I would love for you to reach out to my previous employer for any questions, concerns or validation. Feel free to email me as well.

Am very energetic person I am very talkive

I am an experienced caregiver with references.

I became a caregiver after seeing friends do it. I knew I had what it took to care for patients/residents in any way they needed it. I have all the qualities of a great caregiver. I have experience with different kinds of disabilities and conditions. I love doing these things and insuring all of my patients are cared for to the fullest. I am now certified to give meds after completing classes!

I've been a state tested nurses aide since 1990. I've worked in nursing homes and I've done home health to keep your loved ones living and functioning in their home.

I feel I am a great caregiver because I have all my life cared for ones; beginning with being the middle of seven children I was responsible for caring for those under me and then into marriage; I cared for 4 children. After my divorce I continued caring for my four children at the same time living with my elderly grandmother of 93, who had Aleizmiers and her sister, 88 who had breast cancer. Working closely with different agencies including Hospice, I was able to give them the quality care they deserved for as long as I was able to do so. I also have a friend who has MS and she lived right across the hallway from me and I have over the last four years enjoyed helping and caring for her. I have a heart for the hurting and disable. I understand the challenges involved in caring for them and would like to pursue a career in this field. What I like about being a caregiver is being able to make them smile, to remove for a season of time the reality of their present state and help them see a lighter side to life. I combine care with comedy and wit and make what is work - now relationship. When I came to take care of my grandmother she was pretty unrespondent to everyone. After about a month there, she would talk more and she began singing. She still didn't know who I was, but her who demeanor had changed and she was more pleasant and cooperative. I am a mother of four and a grandmother of 15. I love people and though not an outgoing person by personality. I
