Gastrointestinal Disorders Caregivers in Shasta County - 19 caregivers found

I like helping people. I love building relationships with my clients. I like listening to their stories and learning from them

I have always wanted to help people with special needs; perhaps because I had a sibling who was born with severe disabilities, so I know first hand the difficulties and challenges faced by these individuals and their families. There was very little help available when I was a child, so we relied mainly on our family for the help and support we needed. Back then, there were no respite services or in-home caregiver services. You took your chances on finding a trustworthy stranger (if you could afford one). Now, it is very gratifying to me to be able to help other people who are dealing with illness or disability in any way I can. I like to make jewelry and craft items, and I like to share those hobbies with my clients, if they're interested. Many of them seem to enjoy these activities and find them gratifying. I also love to read, and some clients enjoy being read to, which I also enjoy. I've been told I'm a good listener and a pretty good companion, as I can adapt to whatever my client is capable of and willing to do. I am experienced, caring, and am a retired social worker.

I enjoy helping others, I understand as people age they may need some help with things that they cannot do for themselves any longer. I am compassionate, caring and a good listener. I like to make someone's day, even if it is in a small way. I have worked with many different types of people and I always try to make a good connection with each one. I like to get to know my clients, what they enjoy doing, their family, what they did for a living. I try to make each visit a great one.

Very happy & easy going, caving, loving, passionate and very trustworthy person.

I am a licensed CNA and currently working as a mentor to people with developmental and physical disabilities. When I was 12 years old my grandma was diagnosed with ALS and I helped care for her until she passed, that experience led me on to become a CNA and commit to helping those in need with every day living. I'm very open-minded and compassionate.

My first experience as a caregiver was when I was 15 years old. My grandfather was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. Both my parents were school teachers so I was responsible for his care every day after school till they got home. My heart is in taking care of others and helping keep them home in there comfort zone as long as possible. I am 38, I obtained my CNA in 2000 and have worked with different companies ever since. I enjoy all people with different illnesses I have extensive training with accute, long term, rehabilitation, psych holds, pediatric and also worked for two years in a lock down alshiemers ward. The job is hard and sometimes mentally exhausting, but I couldn't imagine doing anything different.

My past history includes caring for others eyes and vision thru Optometry. I am currently a care coach and advocate for the homeless. i enjoy helping those in need.

I am a 38 year old woman. In a relationship. I have helped the elderly and mentally challenged adults for 15+ years. I love taking care of others. I am a non-smoker. I currently work fridays through sundays for a quadriplegic woman so looking to fill mon-thursday with extra shifts. I work in Sacramento but live in Redding, ca. Would love to find a local job. Been doing this commute for almost 6 years.

I have a desire to help other people. I try to be kind and compassionate and understanding. I find that when I am helping other people it makes me feel good and love the person I am. I would say that my greatest accomplishment in this field is that I have had 2 jobs that lasted for 10 years each in this field. That is a huge accomplishment to me because in this field and great caregiver usually lasts about 3 months. I stayed with the families from my 1st day on the job until their parents last days on earth.
