Cancer Recovery Caregivers in Pineville - 20 caregivers found

I worked as a caregiver for on an off for 12 years.

Hello ! I am attracted to being a caregiver because I was raised by my grandparents. I love taking care of the people that took care of me when I needed it most. A personal achievement of mine is that I graduated college and showed my grandparents that their handwork and guidance was not taken for granted.

I feel drawn to taking care of others. I served as a medical specialist for one term in the US Army National Guard. I also served as shift floor first responder at plants I worked at over the years while a cnc machinist. It has been my privilege to assist with hospice care for family and others through word of mouth. I've gone as far as getting ordained so I could spend time with one of the gentlemen I was caring for who requested me while in ICU. (They would only allow family and clergy.) I've worked with people recovering and in cancer treatment, dementia, alzheimers, deaf, blind, bed bound, mobility issues using wheel chairs and walkers, among other issues. As a caregiver, I have done many things: kept written log for family if needed, light housekeeping, baths and showers, laundry, medication monitoring, errands, helping with making and keeping appointments, the occasional over night stay, meal prep and much more. I'm also a mother of a child with a cleft pallet who also went through years of heart issues until she had surgery, and have a daughter with autism as well so special needs I'm more than comfortable with. It is my goal to make sure the comfort and safety of every individual meets their specific needs. As a caregiver, I treat everyone as extended family.

I am very patient and considerate. When comes to caregiving I like to have a sense of humor and keep my spirit joyous so that I can serve with my best. I started caregiving for my mother in 2009 and have been doing it ever since. The thing I enjoy most about caregiving is seeing the satisfaction of my loved ones; knowing that their needs have been met. I wouldn't say I have a personal achievement to be proud of per say, because I haven't perfected being a caregiver. But I'm proud of the fact that I give of myself to others in need.

I have been a certified nursing assistant for 17 years? I am excellent at caring for others. Helping individuals whom have been injured or those who are disabled or ailing is my passion. I take great pride in being a CNA and assisting where people can not completely do for themselves, to ease the load on the family and loved ones.

I am a very open minded caregiver. That loves to help anyone that's in need. I am great at assisting anyone who is in need of meals preparing, shopping,Dr's Appointments, reminding them to take there medicine, assisting them with there hygienes and baths, helping them pay there bills and house cleaning and laundry whatever's needed I'm all here for it!

I'm a loving caring person I love to laugh and make everyone laugh and feel comfortable. I love caring for people my grandparents were sick and growing up we had to take care of them and I just want to be able to help and take care of other people that need help.. I enjoy just seeing my clients and making them laugh and just be there for them. One personal achievement in my life that I'm proud of is me never giving up when life did get hard for me!!

What drives me to this kind of work , is the joy it brings to their life.. I'm very caring , I listen, I'll go above and beyond for my clients. My females get there hair and nails done me.. I try and make sure they don't feel trapped inside all the time .

I helped my mother during her breast cancer and lung cancer diagnosis. So care giving is very personal to me. I have worked the past 5 years assisting 4 individuals with specials needs. I assisted with medications, grooming, personal hygiene, meal prep and feeding. I also was responsible for household chores. I took my clients on outings and to doctors appointments. I also was over their finances. Now that my mother has passed I really would like to give back to other people and help those who need it. I know how hard the responsibility is of caring for a family member and everyone needs help.

I been a care giver for more than 32 years and have worked varies fields within the medical field. Started my own business here in S.C. and love the hours and the clients and workers I get to help.
