About Jeanette

I was raised in a Christian home by my grandma, mom and dad. I attended a vocational tech school for High school where I studied nursing. I was a dental radiographer and expanded functions assistant for 18 years. I quit that to raise my sons during their teen years. I owned my own home day care business for 14 years. I went back to school and became a phlebotomist. After four years I was bored and went back to school to become a CNA. I have worked in hospitals and Hospice Houses. I have taken care of elderly in their homes because of cancer and/or hip replacements. I have worked in the ER on 12 hour shifts. I love taking care of people.

I am a caring and giving person. I treat my clients as if they are family with respect. I know how to reroute behavior if they are having a bad day. Being in a good mood around clients is what gets them through the day. I strive for them having a nice time. I became a caregiver when I worked for Cedar Lane Apts and the Director saw how I treated the Assisted Living. One client was difficult but she loved me so they ask if I can be her caregiver in 2003. I been doing it every since. I enjoy seeing the looks on my clients face when they are happy. I enjoy putting them in a good mood. I love our outings I'm proud that the families brag on me and the staff appreciated me. I'm proud that I got to sometimes put them to bed comfortable. I'm proud to wear my scrubs

1) Why did I become a Caregiver because all my life I have always love helping other and it started with my owe family. I was the youngest of eleven children and I watch my nieces and my nephews. I was taught by my mother to treat people the way you want to be treated. 2) What do I like about being a Caregiver, being a Caregiver give me joy and a fulfillment that I can make someone life better and bring happiness. It is rewarding, that I want to show love by doing things that other s maybe cannot do for themselves. 3) What is a personal achievement I am proud of; this just happen within a couple of months ago when my mother was in a rehab center and my mother did not remember who I was as the time. She stated to me that god was going to bless me because I showed her love and I didn't know her. 4) I would like to introduce myself and to let you know, I am a Christian. I always treated people the way I want to be treated.. I have worked in healthcare for several years. My passion is tending to the patients mind, body and spirit, in other words to ensure that they thrive where ever they are. All my life I have always being a caregiver and a servant to other. I have done volunteer in the activities and hostility areas at nursing/rehabilitation center. My career has being in the computer areas but my heart have been caring for other. Before God decide to take my 97 years old mother home, I took care of all personal needs. I have worked for Carelinx since November 2015 and the first client I cared for was a 99 year young woman and she enrich my life., She was more than just a client. she became my family. She live to be 100 year young. Reference will be provided per request.
