I believe what makes me a great caregiver is that I take care of all my patients as if they were my own family and make sure they are comfortable and most importantly I listen to their needs. I first became interested in health care when my mother was ill and needed care herself and realized that I had a real passion for helping others. I enjoy knowing that the family can be at ease knowing I'm there taking care of their loved ones. At Long Beach Memorial I was know as the "sitter whisper" because whenever they had a difficult patient they would alway assign me that patient and by the end of the day the patient would no longer require restraints or was completely compliant and friendly. They always ask what was my secret and I would say I simply listen to what their needs are.

I am a trusted and professional person who could readily adjust, learn and communicate, patient and persevering in dealing with people. I'd like to be of service to the elderlies and families who needs somebody to take care of them and treat them as my own relative or a new friend. I enjoy most being a caregiver in ways that I could impart my know- how in properly taking care of them. My personal achievement are : It widened my horizon of a good interpersonal relationship with the resident whatever his case is; imparted proper and decent care to the elderlies .

I am 55 years old no kids at home have 2 dogs in love working with elderly people companionship is a plus and just making them laugh and be happy about themselves and make them feel comfortable in there home

I've been a caregiver for 35 yrs. I started in this field when I was just 17. I love what I do. I come from a medical family and decided at a very young age that I wanted to be a doctor or nurse. I specialize in geriatric dementia and Alzheimers care. Every client needs to know they're truly cared for on every level with love, patience, and kindness. I enjoy learning from them ... they often have amazing histories, stories and lessons to share.I'm often with my clients for the duration of their lives.

I am a humanitarian with empathy for people. I have compassion for people, I have a great personality, I am patience. I'm spiritual, giving, caring, and I love helping people reach there goals. I was attracted to caring giving because I worked in the field with women that had addictions to drug & alcohol abuse, women that were in domestic violence relationnships. I enjoy spending time with people, helping them achieve their goals, and ambitions. I am proud I was able to care for my former client for 22 years and she became like family and she is now able to do more things for herself. I also cared for a client for 5 years with colon cancer until she passed.

Besides experience and knowledge I acquired from nursing school, helping others has always been my passion. I find joy and fulfillment knowing I make a difference in someone else's life. I am patient and willing to adjust to the needs of my clients. I try to put myself in their shoes, to try and understand them. I treat my patients with love and respect, and with dignity, just like how I would want to be treated if I was in their same situation. Since I was a young age, I have always been interested in helping other people. I enjoy helping others who have trouble helping themselves especially the elderly. I completed my vocational nursing studies in 2012 and it was at that point I realised that helping people is my calling. I love that being a caregiver, you can make a difference. It's a rewarding experience providing care and assistance to those who are no longer able to do so and to know that I have done my job right when I see smiles on their faces. The moments that make me most proud of as a care giver is when I see my patients doing well, seeing their happy faces.

I am an excellent Caregiver, no challenge or task when it comes to my patients needs are refused (unless detrimental to the patient.)
