About Alexander

I'm a hardworking and passionate job seeker with strong organizational skills eager to work in all caregiver positions. I'm ready to help families and companies achieve its goals. I am very reliable in communication and good judgment. In 2007, before my father died for over a year I was the one taking care of him in our home when he became sick. So all this while, he always thanks me and kept reminding me that , I should do the same thing to whoever I come across irrespective of the person status as a human being. So I kept his advice. So in 2011 , when I had an opportunity and came the United States I always remember the advice my dad told me before he died. So that lead me to the caregiver job where any client that I worked for like me so much. My father advice have kept me the the caregiver job that I wanted to continue serve any client that will hire me. The most enjoyable thing that I have is that whenever I do my job as a caregiver on a client either the patient or father member keep saying' I thank you or we thank you for taking care of our family member. That maker me a happy and a better person. My personal achievement is that I was able to make a 94years old male client from South Glastonbury Connecticut to walk again. Having lived with him and his wife for 28 months before he died on 12/1/2023. Six months before I took the job he was sent to a nursing home because he couldn't walk due to illness. But miraculously when I was assigned to him he was able to walk again. Then the wife advise that he should be moved back home. So that's my personal achievement.
