Depression Caregivers in Meridian - 19 caregivers found

Hello,I've been in the home health business for 25yrs. I'm comfortable and familiar with every aspect of care giving . I've never met a stranger a day in my life,I can get along with anyone. I'm a quick study and welcome learning something new everyday.

I enjoy working with people and enjoy jobs where I have one-on-one interaction with others. I enjoy taking care of elder family members and would like to help others in this way. I like older adults and feel I can get along well with a variety of elders. It is essential that a great caregiver (Myself) feel the desire to want to help. By showing both empathy and compassion, a caregiver will let the person know that they care about them. For instance, they will try and do what they can to help - not because they have to, but because they want to.

I am a young, soft spoken, caring adult. I have been a CNA since high school but I have been in a caring/ maternal position for much much longer. I enjoy spending time/ assisting the elderly and/ or children to understand them and what they like and bring it to my personal life to explore and try new things.

I began my caregiving path as a preschool teacher. I spent 12 years caring for children and 2 of those years teaching kindergarten. After my husband passed away I focused on my children. I began an amazing opportunity in senior living care facility 5 years ago as direct care while studying to get my bachelors degree in psychology, and now work as a case manager for 3 group homes.

My name is Dot, I am a great caregiver because I will care for my clients as though they were my family! I have been a certified nurses aid since July 23, 1993. Since then l have gotten my Medication aid certificate. I got into this field of work because I desided if I had to make a paycheck I was going to do help people in need to. I haven't been disappointed working as a care provider because it has helped me take better care of my family. The experience has made me a better person to and has brought me closer to God! My personal achievement has been to provide all of my clients with love and also have the knowledge to take care of my family!

Hello! My name is Bailey Whitehead from Cleburne, TX and I am 21 years old. I am currently a student at Texas A&M University and will be graduating in December 2018, and attending nursing school in January 2019. Although I do not have any professional experience in a workplace, I have cared for family members who have been ill or injured many times. I am a trustworthy and reliable individual with a passion for health care. I particularly find my biggest passion with the elderly and the youth and cannot wait to become a RN to assist those individuals one day. Ever since I was a little girl, I have always loved to take care of those around me and since then, I have never stop. I love getting to know those who are ill ad injured and more about their life. I believe that I am a good companion and can live up to the expectations that family members will have for the care of their loved ones, because I, too, would have high expectations.

I am caring, empathetic, and quick to learn. I have been around all ages and have seen & experienced many different disabilities or health conditions. I tend to be a fixer. I know majority of the patients are probably going to be terminal but personally, I believe everyone in life is considered terminal. I look at things as if we aren't going to get out alive, so let's 1. Meet the necessary needs for each patient. 2. Let them enjoy the life they have left here with the people they love & by doing the things they love. I think for the most part when you have a heart that's keen to the caregiving industry, the most enjoyable thing is getting to go home with a fulfilling, "I did good for someone who truthfully needed it" feeling. But most of all, there's no story like an old story. I love to listen to them, to take in as much as I can but making sure I still fulfill my professional expectations while doing so. My heart is kind and ready to help or do everything in my power to keep these patients happy. Being that I am only 24, I don't have a whole lot of personal achievements that I'm beyond ecstatic to share just yet. But I think in this moment, answering this question, my most proud achievement so far is overcoming the life that I chose for myself. Overcoming the toxic family, overcoming my own personal self doubts or self worth. To feel like enough is enough some days & to know I am worthy of this life, to know God has put me here to do his work so He can sit back and watch is an overwhelming, gracious humbleness. I hope you give me the opportunity to love your family as of they are my own. I look forward to meeting you!
