Upham Caregivers - 7 caregivers found

I'm 25 and love to help others with as much as I can, or as much as people are willing to let me. I like to try and remain positive. Helping people by staying focused and actually caring about their needs and how they are feeling, it goes a long way.

I see myself as a compassionate and trustworthy caregiver. I enjoy seeing my residents thrive and live out the rest of their life in safe hands with a friend to help them, I see myself as that friend. I like to connect to each resident I have and be more than just someone who works for them. I love being a caregiver because it gives me the opportunity to appreciate our elders and take care of them as they have taken care of us. I am proud of the mother I have become and being a caregiver has enlightened me on what giving your all and cherishing someone truly means in motherhood.

I use to be a music teacher and my love for kids has always been there. I love to help others. While I was caring for my great uncle, he spend time in a nursing home with a broken leg, then a hip. I would go everyday to help feed him and I would also visit with other residents by talking with them or wheeling them back to their rooms after meals. I would also take time to go see the whenever I had a chance when my uncle was home. I assisted with activities in the nursing home. I love to care and help others. Upon returning from caring from my uncle, I went back to work for a company I spent a couple months with in caregiving in youth group homes. Since I love kids, it was a no brainer. These kids have suffered greatly in their short lives and if I could provide a service to them, then I am content. I would play cards and board games with these kids as well as do crafts. I love the welcome when the kids see me so I know they like me no matter what issues they have with behaviors.

I love taking care of the elderly and I will go out of my way to assist in what needs to be done.

I love caregiving and have been a caregiver as a second job for about 6 years now. My father diagnosed with terminal liver cancer which has taught me a lot not only medically but emotionally about what the patient and family go through during the hard times of health problems. During the diagnosis of my fathers cancer I searched for the right caregiver and wanted someone educated yet compassionate who could also fit in with our family. I finally decided to caregive for my father myself and am very happy that I did and did hire part time caregivers along the way if I had deadlines for work etc...this is what got me into the field of caregiving and after my father passed I continued to be a caregiver because I know that the nurses and caregivers that helped us through his last few years made a huge difference in our lives and I wanted to be able to give back or pay forward the amazing gift they had given us while he was going through his cancer and treatments. I feel that I am great for this job because I know first hand what it is like to have a busy life and career, I also had a small baby at the time and have a terminal illness diagnosed with no preparation, money for help or family help close by. I know that it can be stressful for the patient and family and I have learned so many skills of how to make these hard times easier, and how to be there for the patient and family and make it easier with not only my medical knowledge and experience but through compassion, understanding, and laughter. I feel that it's very important that you are able to find a caregiver who can feel like part of the family and come and go and be present or in the background when needed but most of all to be there and be reliable and considerate of what the patient and family are going through.
