I'm a very loving and caring and compassionate Cna and can handle any situation and have lots of knowledge to give and I'm very patience

I'm a great caregiver because I have empathy toward people with health issues and this is part of my calling - to assist people to engage their lives as full as possible. What attracts me to care giving is the unconditional appreciation I have received over the years. What I enjoy most about being a care giver would be reciprocity from clients to live and not take for granted the little things. My personal achievement has been making life long friends and some have been considered family.

Jersey-girl relocated to beautiful North Carolina and loving it, with my Air Force Vet Husband & 5-year old son. Lifelong artist, trained fashion & graphic designer + seamstress. A colorful personality visible across the Triangle area, while representing my art/fashion brand LMA Designs, on a mission to make self-expression & creativity more accessible to all as a means of genuine self-care through art and design. I strive to use my skills to help others, to learn while solving problems, with enthusiasm, optimism, empathy, & most importantly, to preserve the dignity of others. In my life experiences & those in the work-place (no matter where that may be) have shown me how important it is at all stages of life & health to have human connection--real human help and compassion--guiding my main goals and philosophy in caregiving and companionship. My job is not over until I have made someone's day a little brighter, more colorful, and more hopeful.

Hello my name is Ihilani ( E-He-La-knee) I started my caregiving career with my grandmother at the age of 10 when I went to live with her, after her hip surgery. That is when I knew that being with people during their most vulnerable time was a ministry and not just a job. I believe that no matter what age or stage in your life we can all need help and more important a sense of protection during these times. Mind Body and Soul all need to be nurtured when we are going through health issues. and it brings me great joy to know that I able to help others when they are experiencing medical, mental or soul pain or just a helping hand making sure that the quality of life that a person lives is safe and secure no matter what stage of life they are in. While working with a nursing home... My new patient, would not let me touch him. I couldn't take vitals, bathing was out of the question, he was just mad at the world and I understood. I noticed my new patient had extreme dry mouth and was very dehydrated. I asked, "What is your favorite drink?" He replied,I love orange juice and I have not had any in 4 years. "What???" I look at my new patient and said I will be right back. I returned to the room in about 5minutes and my patient says well this is a first. I asked What is a first? He replies back "That you came back" I look at him and smiled, Sir you do not scare me with a giggle and I have something for you I believe you will love.He looks at me, smirks what could you possibly have for me? walking towards him holding a half gallon jug of orange juice with a straw saying " Your favorite drink Sir." My new patient looks at me saying, I will let you take care of me. Remembering this story makes me tear up. We had a great friendship that only lasted for 6months before he passed, but we laughed, he taught me things and encouraged me in my life's journey and while I only had 6 months with him, when I think of why I love what I do I think about him

Im a very bubbly warm hearted person that enjoys caring for others. What attracted me to caregiving is spending alot of time with my late grandmother. I enjoyed being there for her and making sure she didn't lift a finger. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the companionship. A personal achievement I am proud of which may sound cliche is my daughter, shes everything to me.

I have been involved in geriatric care since I was a Candy Striper at American Health and Rehabilitation in Florida at the age of 13yrs old. I'm a retired 38yr. flight attendant where care was a huge part of my job. I took care of my mother for 10yrs. while her dementia progressed. With my background you can trust in my knowledge, patience, caring nature. I really enjoy my clients and being with them when they need assistance. I believe in being there to assist a customer in living as independent as safely as possible. I'm most proud of the care I was able to give to my mom. I always treat my patients as if they were my family.
