Karina J.

Greetings! Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me. I'm a 44 year old single woman with a 15 year old daughter and 4 month old husky son. I've been a licensed phlebotomist for 16 years and have always worked in healthcare. My mother was in a wheelchair and completely dependent on me for her every day basic needs and it gave me a great appreciation for the dignity of other humans who need extra help. I also moved my 88 year old grandpa with severe dementia and stroke history into my home. He was always completely dependent on me. It was the most humbling experience and I learned so much about health and human needs. I am very loving and compassionate and I really miss my mother and grandpa. If I could help another family with their loved one, I would be completely dedicated to their total well being. I love animals, I love people, I grew up in the Sacramento delta and in the last couple years moved to the Bay Area.

I can say I am a good caregiver because I love what I do. I want helping other individual and giving the best care I can share them. My profession and being a caregiver molded me to be a strong person and love the work I do even in times of heavy and strenuous workload. I can give you testimonies and documents about the cases I handled. Let other discover who you are.. As I mention earlier I like to be a caregiver because I touch lives of people, especially the elders 100 percent I can make them feel that even in their last stage of life there are still people who can let them feel that they are important. The greatest achievement I have was able to send my daughter to a good school because of caregiving. Even though our work is tiring at the end of the day a client will tell you and will say....'THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING YOU MADE ME COMPLETE. For me this are acievements.
