About katiy

Hi my name is Katiy pronounced Katie but with a Y. Yes it's different. I am 30 years old almost 31 and a single parent of a 14 year old girl. Yes I was young but it made me grow up and mature and be responsible at a young age and it molded me into the person I am today. I'm originally from Cumberland MD. I have been living in littlestown PA since June 2021 so I'm still getting familiar with the area so thank goodness for GPS. I am a happy outgoing person who tries to look at the positive in every situation. I was raised by my grandmother be herself who passed in 2009 from cancer. Well she decided she didn't want to pass in the hospital and wanted to be home so we hired hospice. I also decided I would move back in with her and take care or her like she did me. And I did. The sicker she got I changed her and bathed her and took care of the house and dog for her. I made sure she got her medication every day and at night I always put on her favorite movie and we would sit and watch it together. The hospice nurse that came always told me what a great job I was doing and I should go into the healthcare field. I always wanted to go back to college and become a nurse but things didn't work out that way. Yet. Instead I started working in nursing homes as housekeeping or laundry then went to dietary so I learned the difference in residents diets . I just took in all the information I could. I overthink everything and pay attention to every detail no matter how small. I got my first caregiver job last year. I loved working with residents and providing them the care they could no longer give themselves and I love putting a smile on there face. Then I got my med tech certification. So now I administer medication and also make sure they have a smile on there face everyday. I am responsible, caring, outgoing, and love what I do. I always treat my residents with the love and care they deserve and I treat them how I would want someone to treat my grandmother if wasn't there.

Things that makes me a great care giver is putting someone else's interest ahead of my own. We must love our neighbors as we love our self. So the love that I have for humans is deep rooted. Which makes me want to willingly help more. What brought me closer to wanting to be a care giver is the challenges that I know some elderly people have or people who needed that extra assistance may have issues and sometimes nothing can help suppress that satisfaction but the satisfaction have to be following the rules and making sure that the patient is well taking care of. What I enjoy most about care giving is seeing the smiles on the clients and or patients faces when goals have been accomplished that lets me know that they see what I'm doing, they appreciate it and they want an encore because of the services they've received . A personal achievement that I am proud of is being a dedicated servant of god. That is a marvelous blessing to me.
