Neurological Disorders Caregivers in Cole County - 5 caregivers found

I have found caregiving to be an incredibly rewarding job. I enjoy meeting new people and working with them to meet their needs and goals. I love being creative in my work to bring joy. Meeting home health professionals who worked for my grandmother is what brought me to caregiving. Seeing others taking care of my own family inspired me. My favorite part of being a caregiver is developing relationships with my clients and making their lives easier. Creating lasting relationships brings me happiness and makes me proud to know I've done a great job.

I became a caregiver because my Grandmother was stricken with Alzheimer's disease and I stopped everything and took care of her till the end. I believe God gave me this gift through my Grandmother because once she passed I continued on with another client then another and before I knew it I was loving what I was doing and I was passionate about it. I eventually went back to school and became certified. I am a loving, loyal, honest, kind, and a caring person and I have a lot of patience.

I'm a very hard worker and work great in teams. I take my role very seriously and I tend to bond very well with all of my clients. I'm very organized and do things in a timely manner. I love the caregiver role because I love being a good companion to my clients.

I grew up with a grandma who had strokes. She eventually became paralyzed from a stroke. I would watch my family do everything for her. When I turned 14 I began volunteering to do something she needed and I would stay the weekends and be the only one there to care for her. It brought us closer together. The best thing about being a caregiver would have to be the elderly you meet and the bond you create with them. My biggest achievement so far in life would be getting married. I am easy to get along with but I take my job very serious. I began in nursing when I was 22. My mom worked in nursing for 28yrs. and now I understand why my mom was happy and sad at the same time. Taking care of another human being is the most exciting and heartbreaking job.
