Geriatric Care Manager (GCM) Caregivers in Gilbert - 7 caregivers found

I am half persian half Lebanese I move to Arizona 2001 I have been a caregiver since 2013 I like to hike play tennis play golf

Since I can remember I always had a heart for the elderly so a few months ago I decided to take the AZ caregiving course (104 hours of training) so I would be eligible to work with them. I passed my state test with flying colors and have been working at an assisted living home since then. I am compassionate, patient, motivated, accountable, respectful and professional. I am results driven and I do not shy away from hard work. When I am with someone my goal is to brighten their day and make sure they are comfortable, safe, and happy.

i believe that i am a great caregiver because i have an extreme amount of empathy for the elderly. i can "feel" the need and the pain of what most are feeling. i became a caregiver for that reason and also to pay back for the guidance and support and the struggles they had to endure. I am a hard worker. i believe that people can do some sort of the tasks they have done before they were placed in a care center or a snf. i have worked with stroke, head trauma, CHF, COPD, patients and gave them the skills and motivation to move forward. I showed different ways to put on a shirt and to be able to button it, how to eat with another hand, showing breathing exercises to those who are having a hard time breathing due to the COPD

Maintaining and expanding my reputation as an excellent caregiver and the acknowledgement of my excellent service that I frequently receive from my clients and their loved ones mean more to me than almost anything else. I am always working on expanding my knowledge, skills and talents. I am a hard, conscientious worker. I take great pride in all I do. I am literally loved by ALL of my clients because I respect them and consider them friends. I have received countless emails, cards and letters from them in my short career. At each visit I try to challenge and encourage my clients and they feel better about themselves and what they have accomplished that day. I am a good conversationalist, always trying to find out more about my clients' interests and our commonality. I often arrive with “tricks up my slieve” – little surprises – to “make their day.” (One client actually said this to me.) I have a reputation with my clients of being an excellent cook able to prepare a wide range of delicious dishes, beautifully presented. In fact one client’s spouse, who herself is an excellent cook, suggested that I become a personal chef for some bachelor or retired couple. I appreciate art, high design and always try to incorporate “good design” in things I create; that includes food presentation. I believe our daily activities should be as enjoyable as possible and our environments should be as beautiful as we can make them. “Life is Art!”

I have been caregiving for about 1 year now and “still love what I do”. I love providing home caregiving services to those that would otherwise not be able to do so. The smile on their faces is overwhelming and makes me feel I have done my job right. I have always enjoyed helping people so I know I am doing the right thing.

Helping people ,that,s what ii love . Making a difference in some one life ,providing with a smile ,being teachable over the years,and having the operitunity to apply what I learn, I am Fearfully and wonderfully made ,funny ,out going,and love people an that,s why I am a great caregiver.

I became a caregiver because I like getting to know people and I have always had a yearning to care for people who are not able to care for themselves. What I like about care giving is getting to know a person and helping someone who needs it but doing it in such away that they keep their dignity. When I care for a person I feel I have achieved a relationship where they feel important. I like photography landscaping nature and I like taking candid pictures because it shows the nature beauty of the person.
