Parkinson's Disease Caregivers in Franklin County - 18 caregivers found

Hello, I'm Jennafer. I previously worked for a VA Medical Center as a nurses aid. I loved my job, unfortunately I moved and it was too far in distance. I am CPR certified, and have experience with most common elderly illnesses and diseases. I worked with a lot of patients suffering from either dementia, Alzheimer's, diabetes, urinary, respiratory, cardiopulmonary, restorative, and more. I absolutely enjoy making people happy and being part of people's lives, which is one reason I believe makes me great at care giving. I love to talk and companionship is a big plus for me in the healthcare field. I am very compassionate about the care I provide and I enjoy the friendships I get to make. I am always looking for ways and opportunities to better my skills and care. Just for a little extra info, I do speak some spanish, however not too fluent; I also play several musical instruments in which I got to share music with some of the residents I cared for. I am an excellent worker, friend, and companion and I hope to get the opportunity to show and express it to you and your loved one(s)!

A little about me I live takeing care of people who just need an extra hand or just want someone to talk to I like be able to help people. My grandmother is a big reason I become a caregiver I watched her for years struggle with Parkinson's an slight dementia and all I wanted to do was help I tried to help her but she was determined to do it herself but she knew I was right by her side if she needed an extra hand.

I am a great caregiver because i've been caregiving for more than 6 years and still love what i do. I love providing home caregiving services to those that would otherwise not be able to do so. The smile on their faces is overwhelming and makes me feel I have done my job right. I have always enjoyed helping people so I know I am doing the right thing. I always give 100% and do the best job I can, with no exceptions or excuses. I also try to bring a sense of humor to my work. If I can add a smile or laugh to a client’s day, that means a lot to me. It is important to laugh.

I am a very hardworking and compassionate person. I love meeting new people and having a sincere but reliable and business work relationship. Whether it is being a good listener or doing daily activities I am someone you can trust and respect as I will do for others.

I am a highly compassionate and patient individual. Helping others brings joy and great purpose to my life . I am grateful to be able to add to or increase another's ease. I have a lot of experience working with a individuals with a variety of needs. Currently I am in nursing school and caring for individuals in various medical settings, in the evenings, through my clinical experience. It feels pretty good !

I became a care giver at a very young age i used to go to work with my mother and help out with what ever i could, i became a cna at the age of 12, and have been around the elderly my whole life,I like being a care giver because i enjoy helping people, and listening to there storys from when they were young, My achievement is helping people that need it the most and some of the eldrely have no family so i try to become there family and put a smile on there face thats my achievement making someone happy. i am a recent widow and i have 2 grow children and 3 grandchildren,i live alone and enjoy life.

to tell you the truth i was 17 years old and neede a job, there was an add in the paper for cna training(free), and i signed up< i took the class and passed< here i am 35 and still a cna. i feel that is my calling, ive delt with many residents from sych. patients to just elderly patients that needed help with daily activities. i sometimes feel that i can be apart of there life just because im around them and there situations every day. when i go to work, and hear, "hi,were you been?" it realy makes me feel that i have an impact on there life. thats a good feeling. im a fast learner, very outgoing and love to laugh, and make people laugh around me.

I love working and taking care of people that need me. I I have worked with handicapped and mentally and physically disabled persons as well. I have dealt with a lot of altzheimers and dementia clients and also worked with hospice.

I have been a Caregiver/Med tech for 4 years. I really find working with Elderly enjoyable. I'm also a Certified Medical Asst. I'm very experienced with cooking and create healthy meals. In addition, I started a garden at my last job for the 6 ladies I was honored to spend time with. I think we all could learn from our elders, they have so much to give to us. Thank you for your time and consideration.Gina
