Dementia Caregivers in Lewis County - 20 caregivers found

I started doing this at 16 taking care of my mother who had a stroke taught her everything all over again then I took care of my grandmother for 5 years after a stroke who didn't recover she passed away 5 years later I love helping other people and enjoy being able to put a smile on there faces and brighten up there day and I love what I do bc it's something my heart and soul Is into doing I've tried other things didn't work I love being able to help the elderly and children and young adults

I enjoy helping out people. I enjoy being a caregiver because I want the person I am helping knowing they can always count on me and they will have a new friend that will treat them like family.

I became a caregiver to help families with the care that their loved ones needed and deserved. I became a caregiver the hard way. My 2nd wife was battling an autoimmune disease to which I took off work for 2 years to take care of her until she passed. This has given me a unique perspective to bring to the table to assist thr patient as well as the family.

I am very compassionate and hardworking mother of 6. I enjoy being able to make someone else's day a little easier. I got into this line of work because I grew up watching my mom work in nursing homes and volunteered when I could. I have 10 years experience in the medical field and 4 years of one on one caregiver experience.

I became a CNA at 18 working in a nursing home. I enjoyed it so much I went back to school and got my degree as a Medical assistant. I have been working in the medical field for over 20 years. I enjoy making my patients feel as comfortable as possible and to help them maintain as much independence as possible.

I am a very loving and understanding person, a good listener for both the patient and family members. I'm quick to learn what to do and not to do. As a 17 year old I am very well mannered. What has attracted me to become a caregiver was watching my older friends and family members who were caretakers, take their love and help families through a difficult time period. I most enjoy spending time with older ones and listening to their life stories it's always fascinating and sometimes funny. My favorite personal achievement would be receiving my CPR and first aide certifications.
