Maggie W.

I am an individual who prioritizes family values and embodies reliability. With over 15 years of experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), I have honed excellent patient care and charting skills. Holding a bachelor's degree in behavioral science, I am also certified in drugs and alcohol as well as trauma-informed care. Proficient in CPR for adults and children, I demonstrate both compassion and technical proficiency in delivering care to diverse patient populations across various healthcare settings including hospitals, long-term care facilities, short-term care facilities, hospice care, and private homes. My expertise extends to caring for individuals with neurological disorders such as dementia, Alzheimer's disease, and physical disabilities, as well as those in post-operative recovery and convalescence. Among my responsibilities are hands-on nursing care, assistance with activities of daily living, medication administration, and maintaining accurate patient records. I am well-versed in the legal implications of patient care and consistently demonstrate empathy and compassion in my interactions with clients. With a strong emphasis on communication, I possess excellent verbal and written skills and consider myself a dedicated and trustworthy professional with the innate ability to multitask and manage time effectively. Overall, my passion lies in assisting others, and my commitment to being a good listener enhances my professional capabilities. I firmly believe that with unwavering faith, all challenges are surmountable.

I have always had a strong relationship with my Grandmother, from as young as I can remember. I watched her as she aged over the years, and became unable to do certain things for herself. It was instinctual for me to just do them for her. It made her feel better knowing she had me there for her and it made me feel good knowing I could help her and make her life easier. I still feel that way today when I am able to help someone out with things they cannot do for themselves. I always think, if I wasn't around for my own Grandmother, I would have wanted a compassionate individual, like myself, to care for her. I take pride in my natural ability to care for the wellbeing of others with the utmost respect. I truly enjoy helping people. That is why I became a certified caregiver.
