About River

Hi! My name is River Gunville. I'm 27 years old. I was raised by my grandmother and I helped take care of her for several years. I also have 1 year of experience being a caregiver for residents in an assistant living home. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the ability to provide care to those in need.

I also have 1 year experience working as a behavioral health technician/caregiver for MedServices, a company that provides medical care and caregiving. In this position I would be assigned 8 or 12 hours shifts, depending on the job that was needed. I worked at a youth shelter where I would cook, clean, and supervise/care for the kids. I also provided one-on-one caregiving for 1 client where I would clean her apartment and do anything else she needed. I would also picked up shifts at assistant living homes where I would be responsible for cooking dinner, cleaning, administering medication, and the general well-being of the residents.

I am a mature woman with over 25 years caring for people of all ages and walks of life. I have bachelor degrees in Family Life and Human Development and in Nursing. I was a registered nurse for 25 years. I have extensive experience in home care, and especially enjoy home care because it gives me a chance to work in an environment in which people are the most comfortable. I enjoy becoming a part of each client's life and in meeting family members and friends. I have found I have a knack for building rapport with clients. I believe in treating each client in a holistic manner, and in communicating with him/her as a person, not as the condition for which he/she is receiving services. I enjoy teaching each client about his/her condition and in focusing on health-promoting practices. My degrees fit well together, and my experience has covered a broad area of expertise.
