Arthritis Caregivers in Rio Verde - 70 caregivers found

I'm a very compassionate person, and I've enriched the lives of many, while in the comfort of their own surroundings. I've worked in the medical field as a respiratory technician for 15 years, and I've been a certified caregiver for 20 years and found that in home health care is where my passion lies. The majority of my clients are elderly, and to remove them from their surroundings can often cause them too much trauma. Being in their homes with them, and assisting them in day-to-day activities, is always more comfortable and provides a much happier environment. I know at the end of each day I have shown them compassion and made their lives more comfortable and peaceful. I am certified in CPR and FIRST AID, and I am a CERTIFIED CAREGIVER. I also have an extensive medical background as a RESPIRATORY TECHNICIAN ,and other aspects in the medical profession.

Caregiving is a second career for me and one I have returned to after my 18 year career with Home Depot as an assistant manager. My license and certifications are listed below and I have been actively caregiving again since January 2016. Being a great caregiver has been very rewarding for me and is one of the most important things I do. My first job as a caregiver was many years ago when I was still in highschool and college. I can still remember with fondness the names and stories of many I cared for. I remember because I truly enjoyed getting to know them and they all touched my heart in so many special ways. I am compassionate and empathetic by nature. I have a special interest in memory care and feel providing a secure and loving environment where clients can feel safe, loved and have the ability to thrive and remain as active as possible is of the most importance. I have experience with dementia/Alzheimer's, chronic illness, medication assistance, medication detox, gait disturbances, recovery from surgery and rebuilding strength and abilities afterward. I strive to understand the specific needs of each client and support them emotionally and physically to achieve their full potential. I am reliable, patient and conscientious. I like to cook and prepare healthy "tasty" meals and I like to care for pets too! I have been around animals my entire life and truly enjoy helping clients care for their pets. I feel it is important for us all to stay connected to friends and family and stay as physically active as possible doing the activities we enjoy. I try to incorporate some type of daily exercise for each client whether it be walking outside when weather permits, the gym or simple stretching and strengthening for those who are disabled.Licensed Nursing Assistant and Certified Assisted Living Caregiver. CPR, AED and Basic First Aid Certification. Article 9, Food Handler Certification and Level One Fingerprint Clearance Card.

I have been a caregiver my entire adult life. As a retired RN, I have been focusing on caring for the senior population. This began with caring for my own mother for 5 years. Elder care is very rewarding. I love getting to know each client and try to personalize the care they receive. This often includes talking to family members and getting input as to what brings joy to each clients life, as well getting the clients to tell me about their lives. In other words each person has different likes and dislikes, and different physical and emotional needs. It is extremely important to me to treat each and every client with respect and dignity, and to help them maintain as much independence as they are capable of.

I keep a very positive attitude. I also have a good sense of humor, and very dependable. My compassion shows instantly for the elderly. What attracted me to caregiving is a look of innocence in my clients eyes, a childlike essence. What I enjoy most are the stories my clients have shared, the knowledge and wisdom I gain , what a wonderful bonus. An achievement that I'm most proud of is receiving an integrity award for a health and wellness is owned. My most recent live-in caregiving position was with an aristocratic DuPont family ... They were like family to me and vise versa:- Thanks for reading[?]

Hi there! I enjoy doing work that has the potential to make a difference in the lives of seniors. Living in North Scottsdale keeps me close to my current clients at the Vi Silverstone, but I always have extra time to fill in with a another client if it is in the Scottsdale area. Feel free to reach out should you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you!

I left the mortgage instrusty when my Mom was diagnosed with cancer. I quit my job to help care for her. It was life changing. She was my best friend and I can understand where families are coming from looking for the most trustworthy and compassionate person that they could find. It's not easy. I don't know why some people are in this field, when they don't have the qualities that it takes to be a caregiver.. the patience, the understanding, the empathy, the hard work, the love, the compassion and kindness are only a few of the skills that these caregivers need to be a special caregiver. After my Mom passed, I helped care for my Dad for years while I worked at an Assisted Living Center. I drove out to his home almost daily to help with his house cleaning, preparation of meals, laundry, caring for his pets, taking him to Dr. appointments and doing his groceries and Medication management. After he passed, this became my life. Yes, I worked at all these kinds of places, but I was meant to work independently with families. I have the of heart that you are looking for. I have taken the CNA course, but I let my license expire, I have taken the EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) course and passed the final with a score of 97% , but I didn't pursue that route. I started college courses to pursue Nursing. I have taken Anatomy & Physiology with a cadaver I, Biomedical Terminology, Psychology I and II and some General prerequisites. I have the passion that has helped me start my own caregiving business in Illinois where I have a team of caregivers. I recently moved to AZ and I have decided to eventually expand out here.
