Dementia Caregivers in Effingham - 33 caregivers found

I have always been a caregiver, taking care of my grandparents, my aunt before she was transferred to a nursing facility. My aunt had numerous health issues. I also took care of my husband, he had two major surgeries last year, he had to learn to walk again. During the process of caring for my husband, I realized that I enjoy helping people and I resigned from law enforcement and I am currently working as a caregiver part-time for Comfort Keepers of Florence SC since November of last year. I'm proud to say that I took good care of my husband and he is getting stronger every day, caregiving gives me the opportunity to give back to our seniors, I enjoy putting a smile on their faces. I hope I pretty much answered all of your questions

Being a caregiver you have to be patient and love people. I love what I do. Meeting new families and being trusted with the care of their family member shows the public and community what kind of person you are to give them such great service for their family member.

Hello, I have one years experience as a LPN and past experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant for 23 years. I've always had a passion for caring for those who may be in need of healthcare services and assistance with maintaining dignity and as much as independence as possible. I am BLS certified, up to date on all vaccinations including COVID. I have experience with several areas of healthcare ranging from acute hospital, nursing home, hospice, disabilities and special needs, and home health. I enjoy being able to make someone's day better by providing a comforting ear, hand, smile, or personal care whenever needed. I feel that we all need someone with compassion, sympathy/ empathy, and a genuine love for wanting to see people do well in whatever capacity of life they may be. I also have an Associates Degree in Human Services. I would love the opportunity to meet those who may be in need of any assistance that I can provide.

I have a pleasant personality, I like to make people smile or laugh, because I care. I enjoy helping people to be or do their best. What I enjoy mostly about being a caregiver, is meeting new people and touching someone's live or them touching my live in a positive way. Helping people is me giving back to my community and making this world a better place , when we show love and compassion toward one another.

I'm a loving caring person I love to laugh and make everyone laugh and feel comfortable.

I'm a great caregiver that cares for the elderly as if they were my family and what inspired me to doing this kind of work was my grandmother. I took care of her for 7 years and it taught me patience and dedication. I felt good that I made her life happy. I love walking in a room and brighten up her day. It's a sense of satisfaction. So I became a caregiver! I know she's proud of me. Cause I can share the love that she gave me to the elderly, sick,and the injured people who need caring and trust worthy people in this world.

Hi my name is Latoya Singletary when I chose this field to work in I never take a client unless I put myself in the client shoes. I treat everyone of my clients as they were family.

I am Jodi Segars, 29 years old and just moved to Florence, SC in February. I have been working with the elderly for 9 years now. My whole family including my mother, aunt, sister, and sister in law all work in the healthcare field. I feel that honesty, trust, patience, caring are all personality traits it takes to be a great caregiver. Growing up I was always with my grandparents, always wanting to help my mom take care of others. I put others before myself. The most I enjoy about being a caregiver is the one on one time I get to spend with the client, get to know them, their likes and dislikes, try to let them be independent as possible. At the end of the day, knowing that I have helped someone in every way I can and cared for them and did my best I can gets me through each and everyday. I feel accomplished to provide care for anyone that needs it, and I do it with my utmost respect.
