I have been a caregiver for four years I have grown so much and enjoy giving of myself to improve quality care making a difference for both client and their family. i became a caregiver because i have compassion for people and have some medical training as a medical assistant for 6 years. I recently was awarded caregiver of the month for the company i now work for. I have been trained to use a hoyer lift, gate belt and personal care for catheter patients. I have taken care of hospice patients as well as knowing how to give proper care in repositioning patients. I also am a good cook.
