I became a caregiver to give our Seniors the care that they need to continue a good quality of life in their own surroundings. I have a very optimistic personality. I am a Cowgirl that raises cattle, trains horses and has Barrel Raced for 60 years. I have a degree in accounting, which has put me in the business world. I was lucky enough to have been raised in a Military family, living all around the world. I feel accomplishment when I can change the life of someone.

I am a compassion and patient and as a caregiver, I am always ready for any change and I have an understanding of what clients is going through. I am a good listener, trustworthy and very dependable caregiver. Since I have been a caregiver, I feel like my client are part of my family, I feel good when I help/ assist them with what they use to do and cannot do it any more. I am proud to know that at the end of the day I did my best to change someone's life and I am appreciated.

Hi. I not only have been doing this for as long as I can remember but I have been doing this since my nana passed away, last year. It's an a amazing feeling to enjoy your clients company and to enjoy the talks and bonding you do with them. It's about giving back for me that's why I got into this. I want to remind the people who are age so gracely before us that not all of this generation is corrupt. I don't just go to a job. I go enjoy time with "Sam." Or "mary." Whoever is my client I go to spend time with them so I can help them.

I first became a caregiver in 1989, taking care of my foster grandmother. I was with her until her last breath in 1992. From there I took care of my son who was terminally ill with brain cancer. He passed in Nov. of 1993. I started working Home Health as an attendant in 2001 with Oxford in Joplin and then with Independent Living. I moved to another state and worked as Dietary Manager for an Assisted Living facility. My dad became ill in 2009 so moved back to Joplin to care for him and went to work for Independent Living Center from 2010- 2014. I worked taking care of my father fulltime from 2015- 2017 when he passed. I am a go getter done gal who loves working with the elderly or any age needed. I have not worked since Sept of 2017 when Rheumatoid Arthritis took control of me. I would love to work part time preferring the afternoons and or evenings. Mornings are hard for me until medicine kicks in and movement begins.(humor) I am able to do most tasks except heavy lifting, and tight gripping. I love working and miss it so but physical labor all day is impossible for me I am sad to say. Would love to prove that I can carry on with meal prep, household duties, bathing, and numerous other tasks. I am very personable, and compassionate.

My first caregiving job was taking care of a blind girl. I knew it was my calling to care for people. I've always had a way with making those around me feel better. Many of my jobs were private duty through word of mouth. I've done much work with Alzheimer's and Dementia patients. What I appreciate the most has been my Hospice patients. I am kind, compassionate, reliable, happy and flexible.

I possess more than thirteen years of progressive experience in the Health Care field. Working with patients and specified seniors may be a difficult task for some but I do not find anything more challenging and enjoyable than making life easier for someone who has gained wisdom but lost control of physical and mental amenities. I have hands on experience in assisting individuals with disabilities and special needs. I have also had great success in developing and maintaining productive relationships with patients and their families to ensure smooth rehabilitation. I am certified in BSL and I will follow all proper procedures in emergency situations.

I became a caregiver because, I like helping and taking care of people. I like to meet the patients and hear about their life and background. I am pride of my achievement of being a single parent and raising my kids up right. I am a quick learner, I am very flexible. I'm looking for a morning shift or an overnight shift. But right now I'm open with my shift. And I am flexible with my pay rate also.
