Neurological Disorders Caregivers in Boone County - 6 caregivers found

Hi! My name is Judith but you can call me Judy if you like. I have been a full-time caregiver since 2012, and I am so fortunate that I am paid to do what I love! The thought rose up in me when my mother began to show signs of Dementia. We developed a bond that was very close and comforting for both of us. Since then every client is family and every challenge is so worth it! I think I was born to be a caregiver. I think that trust is the most important aspect of my profession. I have learned to be rigorous about making sure things are always where you put them. I don't look in cupboards or drawers unless I have permission to do so. If a client has faith in me they will exercise and eat and walk more readily. I am certified CMA (I am able to pass medications legally) and up to date on my CPR and First Aid Certifications. I think I am most proud (and grateful) for my ability to make clients feel protected and valued.

I help with all the activities of daily life, from showering and helping eat to just normal everyday conversations to help residents feel comfortable with my company! I am attracted to being a caregiver because I love to make the elderly feel not alone and to give them help and to show compassion. I enjoy the company of my patients the most! A personal achievement I have that I am proud of is my children.

I am a vary hard worker and I love what I do. I treat everyone with love and respect. I have been a caregiver for almost 5 years now but I have only been certified for a pca and an NA for a year. I enjoy caring for loved ones who just need someone who cares about their health and well-being.

I am very compassionate and truly love caring for others. My care giving career began in the early 90's caring for my Great Grandmother and eventually caring for my Grandmother with Alzhiemers in 2014. I find great joy in being able to care for those who can no longer care for themselves. Knowing that I have made a difference in someones life is one of the greatest blessings . Being a private caregiver has helped me to achieve my goals in life. Faith Hope & Love You must have all 3 to truly succeed as a caregiver. 1 Corinthians 13:13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Because my family was brought up in nursing...I love learning about all the new people and meeting many more. I am a mom of an almost 2 year old little boy. Trying to get a fresh start in life and move from Iowa to find a good job here in Missouri!

I've been a caregiver since I was 18. I've been doing so for 8 years now. It's definitely a passion of mine. I really enjoy caring for people and having their family know that they are in good hands.
