About Christy

Hello, my name is Christy I am looking for a few hours on Saturday's, due to working at a school M-F. I am very outgoing and love being a caregiver. I am very observant and pay close attention to detail. I have worked in this field for over 6 years as a supervisor. I first begin this journey and decided this is what I wanted to do when I was 15years old working with my grandfather whom had dementia and was a diabetic. I am happiest when I am helping and caring for others. I enjoy being a caregiver because it gives me the opportunity to help families and people when they need it most. Good quality care is hard to find as I saw being a supervisor for years. The families I have supported has thanked me for showing them how their loved ones should be treated and how wonderful I was with each one. I have had wonderful relationships with all of them and even their professionals. I believe it is important to listen to the needs of the families to better care for the Individual. And also communicating when their loved one is having a good or bad day and overall health and wellness. Staying on the same page helps to accomplish the small goals that lead to big goals. One of my greatest achievements was working with an individual who had behavior issues, whom later calm down to the point the doctor was amazed. Taking time to show people you care can impact their lives for the best.

I have always been the caregiver in my family from my grandmother who suffered a heart attack when I was 11 up to 2016 when my mother-in-law became ill with Parkinson's. It gives me a sense of fulfillment when I make my clients smile...whether it is from cooking their favorite meal or just listening to their life stories. Since I have trained in two different modern health facilities, I am very aware of what to watch for to prevent medical emergencies. My previous clients' families have nicknamed me "Angel" because I always want to make their stressed lives easier...and to create an environment where they can ENJOY being with their loved ones again. I am proud that I am very close to obtaining my CNA license (taking the Oklahoma State Exam in August), having taken 16+ senior homecare courses and training with the very best homecare agencies. I am looking forward to using my God-given talents to help seniors enjoy their lives to the fullest.
