Cancer Recovery Caregivers in Lockhart - 23 caregivers found

Hello Family, my name is Telus. I am 43 years old. I have an infinite amount of love for Nature, the Elderly and Dogs. I am a Libra so that means caring for others is an autonomous way of being. What I enjoy MOST about Caregiving; that it comes naturally and the difference it makes. I enjoy helping others. I also enjoy the arts, classical music, playing with my dogs, and painting. A personal achievement for me would be acquiring this job out of thousands of applicants.

Ever since my mother was diagnosed in 2016 with kidney cancer, I've taken a newfound appreciation for home health care. I helped my father and younger sister care for our mother in her last years. My family has instilled a kindness in me that I carry with me every single day, as it's part of who I am, of who they raised me to be. My parents taught me about how to reflect the love I've been given in my life back out into the world, and there's not a day that goes by that I don't think about how I can make a difference. I've learned a lot in my life about patience, about knowing to remain joyful in every day, as we are never promised tomorrow. I've been a caregiver for my father in the last few years as well, and I'll never regret that. Being someone who will listen, who will show up and be there for the ones we love, that is what is important to me. I hope I can be that pillar of support for others in my life, and I'm inspired by my parents kindness to do so. I enjoy being able to give others a chance at independence, to feel better about their situations knowing it doesn't have to be done alone. Helping my family in their time of need has been my greatest achievement, because at the end of the day the connections I carry through this life are what matter the most to me. I'm always wanting to learn, wanting to elevate my understanding of this life in how we can help each other, and my goal is to continue to bring that kindness instilled to me to every table I sit at in my life. My father and sister have lived their whole lives with diabetes, so I'm very familiar with treatments and knowing the signs for potential lows or highs in blood sugar levels. I believe in respecting people who need support and allow myself to be available however I can in their day to day life. I keep myself in good shape and have no problems with assisting in any heavy lifting a client may need.

I have a flexible personality and can adjust to most environments. I am a experienced caregiver of many years. I enjoy making my clients feel comfortable and at ease with their situation. I am comfortable with all aspects of caregiving.

I'm a caring person

Hi, my name is Kerry! I'm a very respectful individual that cares about ones well being and the role I play as a care giver. I'm very patient and reliable. If anything is needed to be taken care of; I'd be the one to go out my way to get the job done. The relationship and bond that I can build with my residents and their family means the most to me. My favorite part about being a caregiver is giving back to those that are in need of ones help. I'm proud of myself for delivering the same amount of love and empathy that I give to my family members and residents. Everyone in my book is equal !

I'm very family oriented, trustworthy, dependable and love helping others.

I am happily married for more than 15 years and have 2 almost grown boys. My oldest is in his 3rd year of college and my youngest is in high-school. Both of my children have special needs. When I became a mom I was not prepared for the days ahead, but the Lord is gracious and we learned how to handle life one day at a time. I believe that raising my boys has taught me many lessons that I use with those I care for; for example, there is more than one way to do something, if we can't do something the normal way then we adapt. Being a caregiver is something I chose to start in my 40s. In my early life I was an interpreter for the deaf and blind and then worked in an attorneys office as their disabilities advocate for people who were applying for government disability. I loved both of these jobs and learned valuable life lessons from each; patience, for example. In my late 30s my mom got breast cancer. We had caregiver after caregiver come in to help her. Before this I had assumed that the title caregiver meant that the best care possible would be provided while they were there. Unfortunately I was wrong. I was appalled at some of the things I saw happen. I finally quit my job and became my mom's caregiver. I learned on the job the things I needed to know about her medical situation. I cared for her full time for 3 years until she passed. After a couple years (about a year of depression from the loss of my mom who was my best friend and a year of reflection on my life and what I wanted) I decided to find a way to help others. It has always brought me joy when I could make someone feel better or smile. I want to provide the kind of care that I would would expect for my own family. When I am caring for someone they will be treated just like my own loved one. I provide them with level of care that I would expect for my mom. And I try to make them smile every time we meet. I believe that laughter is the best medicine.

Hi... I am Barry Gersten, I have to say that my best quality as a caregiver is that I am always willing to help with whatever is needed. I dont shy away from things that I know I can do. Another great quality that I have is that I like to see things organized and tidy and do not like to leave when things are not in order. One of the things I find that I really enjoy is helping people, especially those who are not able to help themselves. Back in the early 2000s, my Mother was diagnosed with Cancer (Emphysema ). I was her primary caregiver, and it brought me joy to know that I was there to help her through her most difficult times.

I am a Christian first and far most! I love all of God's people. That makes me a wonderful care giver. Your love one will love me like I love them. No job is to big, I do what ever is needed to make sure my clients are taking care of.

I am a very caring and empathetic care giver with a wide variety of skill sets. I have over 20 years of experience in skilled care, home health, hospital, hospice, mental health, alzheimers, dementia and much more. Care giving is my passion and I feel privieleged for the opportunity of each and every client and family I am blessed to care for.
