About Vivian

The personality traits or expertise that will help me be a great caregiver is I have a good relationship with my patients and co-workers. I accept constructive criticism and you do not take anything that happens at work. I do not take it personally. I watch my mother and took care of my grandmother. My father's mother had a stroke after the passing of your father as the only son. She was unable to take the challenges that comes up with a loved one. My grandmother had a stroke and my mother took care of my grandmother at a stage went on she suffered the stroke and she lived 10-12 years after the stroke. Making sure the patient's smile whenever I am around the patients. The patients will forget the situation that they are going through. My personal achievement is to make sure the patients are in good shape and always laughing and good condition. 0

First and foremost I love my job, I love making a difference in people's lives Secondly I'm a mother who took care of two sweet babies by myself, so since the people we support some times need tenderness, I have all the skills to handle them with care and love Thirdly , I'm very calm and patient person, most of the patients we give care for need to be handled patiently especially those with dementia. And some patients are get problems with adjusting to new care givers in their homes, so me being a professional care giver I have the capacity to fit in and make sure they get comfortable with me.
