I am currently a stay at home mom to High school students with Special Needs. I am looking forward to spending time with clients of all ages and stages of life! I have a Nursing license that is inactive- but it is this nursing degree/passion for people that has given me the desire to care take and love on others- deeply. I am half glass full type person who loves to help others in their journey through life! I love to sit and chat and play games/take walks in the fresh air and enjoy getting to know others etc. as we all journey together through this walk we call life! I look forward to helping in any ways I can.

What makes me a great caregiver to me are I will go above and beyond for my residents a are whomever I work for. I am a perfectionist down to the last detail. What 1st attracted me to being a caregiver was my Grandmother she was an LPN up until her 2nd Surgery and was very proud of beinging an LPN. What solidified my beinging a caregiver are a CNA was my oldest son which put me in the role early on of becoming a caregiver He was had to have several surgeries do to a rare Gastrointestinal situation which caused him to be on An IV at all times, a feeding tube and a colostomy Bag for while but not anymore he is 16 now and will be celebrating 17 years of life in 6 month with none of the above. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is simply just the pure love of being able to help someone out period. Being able to see my 1st patient my oldest son see 16 and knowing it was partly my aiding in his care that got him to this milestone in his life is my personal achievement.

I have worked in Healthcare for over 25 yrs. I have worked in many different aspects, but my true passion is working with seniors. I'm cpr/ 1st aide certified. Current neg. T.b. Test. References Available upon request.

I've been educated, consistently trained, & certified in the home & healthcare field since 2004. I've had schooling as a medical assistant, pharmacy technician, ACP caregiver & a level 1 medication aid, etc. I've worked in other job fields but realized my passion is to serve & take care of other. I believe I was directed into this profession because I watched my mother & grandmother take care of a lot of people so it's kind of apart of my DNA. I enjoy this work because I believe this is my gift & I love to make people feel good about life through the ups & downs we face daily. One personal achievement that I'm proud of is starting my own business to take care of people in need.

I think the traits that make me a good candidate for caregiver are that I am empathetic to the client's situation, understanding that I am their to assist the client' in achieving their goals, and I'm an active listener and truly try to get a view of the entire situation going on. I have worked with many different populations with stronger emphases in mental health, developmental disabilities, and addiction and recovery. I have worked with clientele as young as 18 and as old as 90, so I am rather comfortable working with any age group.

I am a certified nursing assistant in Missouri and in Kansas With my Medication Aide License, and my Cpr and First aid certificate. I became a caregiver for many reasons 1 from coming from a famity full of nurses and 2 I love helping people and being there for people and giving the best care To them. I also love the care that I provide And love to see the people's lives that I touch by being so passionate and caring in their time of need. I work with clients with Dementia and Alzheimers and others who just need help with their daily living and activities. I provide Bathing, Cooking, Cleaning, Laundry, Medication set up And Making sure all Medications are taking as needed, Errands also are provided as needed. I have many areas I'm familiar with doing in this field. I have a current back ground check as well and you may do your own as well. I have references as well. Thank you again

I am a former retired RN. I have worked in medical surgical psychiatry home health long term care. I work now as a part time care giver and like interacting with people in a positive manner. I like to promote wellness and safety

I have been a caregiver since 2002. Ive worked with several client in and out of the home. I enjoy and take pride in the care I provide. I enjoy spending time, talking, and learning new things from my clients and assisting with their needs.

I was a caregiver to a quadriplegic professor when I was in college to help pay for my tuition. After college, I continued doing private care on the side for some Alzheimer patients at a nursing home. In 2004, I enrolled at a nursing school for a year and a half. I did not finish my degree, but I did receive my certification as a CNA and as a Medication Technician. I keep up to date with the newest discoveries and findings in the world of medicine. Even though I have not had any new medical training, I am current on my knowledge of diseases, medications and side effects of such medications. For instance, I am aware that when you care for an Alzheimer's patient, you step into his/her world, and not insist that he/she conforms to your expectations of what is real. I am compassionate and capable. All of the kids are either all grown or almost grown, but I still have this vast need to nurture. My husband refuses to be smothered, so, I need to go out of the house and find someone else who would appreciate being cared for :-) My kids are my biggest accomplishment. The eldest is going to medical school this summer, and the middle one is attending UMKC in August. The youngest one is doing great as a Sophomore while giving out just enough sass to maintain her teenage status.
