Multiple Sclerosis Caregivers in Big Prairie - 12 caregivers found

Hello, my name is Lynn hall and I became a caregiver after my divorce, I had no experience and honestly not much work experience as was a stay at home mother.My neighbor said I should try caregiving as she thought I would be a good fit! Well here I am almost 12 years later and I love taking care of people. Being a mother of 3 I think that made a huge difference. Thank you for reading this.

Welcoming you with warm wishes. Just wanted to share alittle about me. I'm 34 yrs old. I've worked since age 14yrs. My mom was a single mom raising 3 kids. I enjoyed working hard and I have always been a giving hearted person. I remember I used to get my paychecks an was so excited I was able to but my mom dinner from a days hard of work. I was first introduced to an entry level position in the State of Kansas as a Residential Trainer for people who face physical and mental challenges and I did that for 3 years. It was so rewarding. Very hard work but I have always been very open to learning new things and I enjoy challenges. If we stay in where were comfortable. The you limit yourself from learning and doing what you can to be the hands and feet for Gods kingdom. After doing that for 3 yrs I decided to get my nurses aide license and doing that for so many years has been such a wonderful opportunity. I absolutely love my elders and I AM THE VOICE WHO SPEAKS UP FOR THEM. I believe that there is way too many people shoved in a room with a facility that lacks sufficient staffing to give the residents attention to give them the essentials like a regular bath and hygiene and clothes put on. I've seen too much of the THE BAD AND THE UGLY in institutions and to me that's NO WAY for anyone to live or spend there retirement in. I love talking and sharing stories, praying, I enjoy providing exceptional care to all clients I come in contact. I'm very friendly. My passion in life is people going above and beyond the call of duty. I'm flexible and reliable as I dont have any kids. Just 3 sweet dogs. Goals I'm working towards and emails the Congress is to shut down institutions and create group homes with a maximum of 5 clients per 1 Nurses Aide Ratio because in the end it would save money on healthcare costs for our elders and reduce risk and injuries and could extend there life. https://www.facebook.com/HealingBeginsInTheHeart Blessings- Heather Sperry

I like taking of elderly people because like to give back

I was a professional caregiver on and off since 1975. I am compassionate and well trained in caregiving. I enjoy spending time with those I care for and meeting their needs. I enjoy doing something I love and also being able to get paid for it. I have held awards for caregiver of the year from a job and promoted to head supervisor in a nursing home I worked in for many years.

I have worked with elder care for over 18 years. The bulk of my time has been with hospice care but I also have experience with Alzheimers, Diabetes, and movement disorders (MS, ALS etc) I will always care for you family as if they were my own.

I became a caregiver because my mother was a nurse. She did home health care for years and she always talked about how much she loved it. When I started into this field it was in hospice care and I loved it. I loved being there with families and helping them through the very difficult times. I always spent more time than required so I could ensure that things were the best they could be considering the situation. I tend to be a fairly quite person at first but become chattery once I feel comfortable. I have always been that way but I have become better with age. I love helping people. And spending time just talking if that's all they would like.

I think I am a great caretaker because I actually take the time to care for elderly as they are my family. I have a big heart for children and elderly that's what interested me in taking care of the elderly on my own. I enjoy the one on one time with them. One of my achievements that I am proud of is I get to know new people meaning my clients and their family. I am a people person and I tend to become very close to my clients like family

I am great at everything i do. Very out going and i have a deep care for other's. Nursing is not about the rate of pay, I believe it is about compassion for other's . I love what I do. And to be apart of someones life and provide exceptional care. I am a mother of 3 , hard working and very friendly. At every care position i have held i have received multiple rewards and recognition from the care I give. I do not feel inadequate in any aspect of my life, training or my abilities as a caregiver/ nurse.

I am first a mom of 3 and a grandma of 3, family is my pride and joy. I have always enjoyed taking care of others. i have been in the business for 34 yrs. i have worked in nursing homes , agencies and travel agencies. my favorite is private duty u get more of a personal relationship with your client.

My bubbly personality helps make the patients feel like they're getting care from someone who cares, I strive to be a smiling face for them everyday. I love being a caregiver because it gives me the ability to help where it is needed. Being a care giver gives me opportunities to meet new people and push myself to be better, everyday is a different day ! I take pride in the simple things like making the bed and cleaning the house perfectly, making sure the patient is clean with clean clothes on and smile on they're face .
