Palliative Care Caregivers in Bountiful - 37 caregivers found

I never intended to become a caregiver. I fell into the position through a friend's connection and discovered that I absolutely love it (and I am amazing at it!) I am a trained and skilled healthcare provider with a background in biomechanics and rehabilitation. I have reliable transportation, am intelligent and good at managing schedules and appointments, and I have a cheerful, fun personality. I am responsible, reliable and mature. As a caregiver, I have found it incredibly rewarding to insert myself into a home that was struggling just to get by day to day, and help bring order and flow. Watching the progress my patient has made over the past few months is one of the most rewarding experience of my life. When I can see that other's lives are better because of me, it warms my soul. I am proud that I have nearly worked myself out of a job. My current position is with a recovering stroke patient. When I first started working with him, he needed help simply getting from his chair into his wheelchair. Now he is walking unassisted, dressing himself, and toileting alone. I love this family, but my days there are numbered (in a good way!).

I am from the small island of Tonga in the South Pacific. Family is the center of my life. I have 4 brothers and 2 sisters, hanging with my family is everything. Respecting our eldest is one of the core principal in my culture and I apply it to my daily lives. I would like to say that I am friendly and patient when it comes to caring for others around me no matter who you are. I am always looking for opportunity to grow personally and professionally.

I am truly compassionate about my job and thrive by helping others. I am upbeat, organized and have the ability to anticipate the needs of those I am blessed to spend time with. After a career at 911, I knew I needed to find a new career where I could continue to help others. I love being a companion and listening to anything like life stories, jokes, and music. I enjoy games, TV, art projects, whatever the client would prefer. Their happiness is my absolute goal. I have received a lot of positive feedback includung messages to my employer about how much I genuinely care. I look forward to talking to you and answering any questions you may have.

I am a compassionate caregiver who is up to date on training necessary to deal with clients. I am a good listener and am able to pick up on cues fairly easily. There is a lightness about me and I feel clients can be at ease with me as their caregiver.

I have always been good at caring for others because my motives are always genuine and in the best interest of the client. I enjoy being able to interact with clients and learn more about them and what they like and the goals they have for themselves. One personal achievement I am proud of is getting my Bachelor of Science in Public Health as it has helped me immensely with increasing my already natural ability of caring for others.
