I believe I'm a great caregiver because I am passionate and caring I love taking care of people and helping them anything I could do to make a person's life better makes me feel better about myself. I started in the field because I do enjoy caring for people so much. I have dealt with all kinds of people from different age ranges with a range of different issues that they may need assistance with and I have always loved doing what I'm doing and I will continue to love doing what I'm doing. I have tried other career paths and they just weren't for me and I honestly believe that caregiving and taken care of and helping people is what I was meant to do.

My abilities and interests in becoming a care giver were fostered during my young teenager years. An immediate family member of mine has experienced many health issues, some of which were life changing medical emergencies. At a very young age I became a caregiver to this family member, which included providing direct daily care, feeding, ambulating, and educating them on their health journey. Along with experience caring for other family members with various conditions, I am also currently enrolled in a 2-year, RN Nursing Program at SUNY Morrisville; which is my proudest achievement so far! Nursing school has provided me with a further understanding of medical knowledge, disease processes, patient centered care abilities, and hands on learning (includes In-Patient clinical rotations). Because of this I am continuously able to add to my list of experience with various health conditions, some including: Alzheimer's, Dementia, Cerebral Palsy, Lesch Nyhan Syndrome, Autism Syndrome, Diabetes, Stroke, Heart Attack, Depression, Anxiety, Ostomy Bags, and more. I am a very organized and detail-oriented person, I enjoy keeping a schedule and planning in advance as much as possible. I have always been described as mature, professional, and approachable. I truly enjoy caring for people, and I work hard to ensure individuals feel comfortable with their care. Nothing is more rewarding to me than making positive impacts on those around me!

Hi, my name is Marlana. I have worked in the field of caregiving for 4 years now. I am outgoing and have a passion for what I do. I love seeing a smile on my clients faces, and seeing them live to their best of their abilities. What had drawn me into this field of work was my mother. She has been a caregiver for 20+ years, and she has nothing but a big heart. Coming home at the end of the day feeing like you improved someone's life is unmatched.

Hi I am a 42 year old single mom who loves to take care of people. I have over 20 years experience taking care of people.

I currently work as a direct support professional at Saratoga Bridges. I find this job very rewarding and touching. I feel that those with disabilities have the biggest hearts and offer the greatest learning opportunities. Many.people are quick to judge these people instead of taking the chance to really get to know them. I think they would offer you the world if they had it to give. I enjoy watching them grow and helping them in the areas in which they may struggle. I enjoy joy helping others and have a big heart. I have always been one to help those who need it. I am currently going to school to become an RN and eventually want to work with children with cancer at St. Judes.

I believe a caregiver should be someone that the patient can trust undoubtedly, and be able to bond with. After all we spend so much time with someone in their home everyone needs to be comfortable. I don't just see caring for people as a service but an honor. To be able to get to know someone's life, likes, dislikes and story all make this type of work extremely rewarding. **Will be available full time any hours after May first. Until then times will need to be set up in advance. My other job is 2-10 pm.

I have been a care giver since 2008. I became interested in being a caregiver when my grandmother needed care. She is what drove me in my career. I cannot picture doing anything else as this is what brings me joy. The ability to keep our elderly at home for as long as possible and make sure their needs are met above and beyond is what I strive for.

I'm very patient, kind, quick thinking. Being a companion/caregiver is very rewarding.
