Hello! My name is Elaine and I'm a great caregiver because, after looking after my father who had Alzheimer's for four years, I have the kind of experience and genuine compassion for seniors that I would want if I were looking for a caregiver. I have completed my CNA training, and am CPR certified. I've also completed several certificate courses in Safety, Memory Care, etc.. Safety is my number one priority. I'm all about fall prevention and have developed techniques to keep my clients as mobile and self-sufficient as possible while keeping them safe at the same time. For me, looking after elders is a privilege. I think that in this sometimes youth-obsessed culture, we can forget how much we all owe to the Greatest Generation. I love to talk to my clients about their experiences, their children, the music they loved, and anything else that brings a smile to their faces! From my father I learned about the music and culture of the 30's, 40's and 50's, and I love it when my clients sing their favorite songs or talk about what movies they liked from those days. I like to cook, so if your loved one has any favorite dishes I'm happy to make them. I can prepare fresh, healthy foods as well as fun desserts. I hope you will consider me for your Caregiver.

My personality traits conducive to my caregiving profile are compassion, empathy, honesty, not excluding strength of life experience. My experience with caregiving provides the opportunity to cultivate my humanity and understanding of the human condition. My pride originates from knowing I can make a difference in those individuals who face physical limitations and the potential neurological disorders associated with an aging population.

My name is ShelbyJo. I have 11+ years of hospitality experience with hotels and restaurants, but after years of feeling unfulfilled, I returned to school and began to transition into healthcare in 2019. I have a certification of completion for CNA school as well as previous CPR certification. I have been a child caregiver for 8+ years and working with elderly with disabilities for the past 2+ years. I'm very passionate about serving and helping others reach their fullest potential!

Nursing is a calling for me. Making sure that people receive the best possible care I am able to provide is my most important goal. Safety first always, compassion, dignity, privacy, respect and hope are all important attribute's that I find essential to good nursing care. It is a meaningful gratifying experience to know that I can add to someone's life and possibility bring goodness when health issues can be a challenge and so often depressing. Good nursing requires being completely present while in someone's home or in a facility. My standards are no cell phones while at work, no clock watching, and I always address people with respect by using MR.or Mrs. (last name) until I am encouraged otherwise. Using Mama or Papa and other terms of endearment are not appropriate for me personally in professional healthcare. I use old fashion "yes Mam, yes Sir, no Mam, no Sir. and in an audible understandable language. CNA #00648980

My patience and special attention given to each client gives me great pleasure in assisting the clients in whatever their needs may be. My Mother had an aneurism which originally drew me to being a caregiver. The joy of being a caregiver is the appreciation that I receive in return from each of the patients. Usually with most patients they do not have a large circle of friends or family so they are so appreciative to receive the assistance of another person. Personal achievements are the everyday joy that I can give a patient on the needs that each individual requires.

I have cared for six families over the past 19 years, and we are all friends to this day. My clients have taught me that happiness is the key to longevity. I want you, as the family to know that it is my intention that you are unburdened with things that I will be taking care of. I have a great reputation, and I look forward to serving your parent's needs, whether that be ADL's, cooking, cleaning, pet care, etc., or as a companion, going out and about having fun. As a former manager of a care facility, I can tell you keeping the family home is in their best interest. In addition to hands on care, I am a capable case manager, and I can prevent some mistakes that families can make. I look forward to interviewing with you. I am seeking 4 days with overnights. My references are impeccable and provided.

Being a good care partner has always been my goal in a career. I have achieved that goal and now want to share that knowledge and skill with other caregivers' weather they are at home or in a facility. I still give care and enjoy it, but I offer specialized training to the family and other caregivers at the same time to ensure the best care for the person suffering from dementia. I am proud of my accomplishment's as a certified independent trainer for (PAC) Teepa Snow's (positive approach to care) it has truly made a difference in the care and quality of life in everyone I care for. I am certified in ALC the Adult Learning Cycle to aid in the way I train individuals to ensure they are learning the best way for them.
