Parkinson's Disease Caregivers in Durham - 38 caregivers found

I have been in healthcare for 11 years. I love helping people and I enjoy caring for people. I love everything about being a caregiver. I love the residents/clients. Their personalities, their conversations, and you can actually learn a lot just from helping others. I'm proud I took the next step and completed my CNA classes. I. Just haven't taken the state test yet.

I have 6+ years of experience in home care. Active License/Certificates LNA (Licensed Nursing Assistant) License Medication Certificate, Dementia Certificate, Hospice and Palliative Care Certificate, 5 years of experience working with patients in hospice care - End of Life stage. Experience with Dementia, ALS, Parkinson's, COPD, and Cancer. I'm a diverse, trustworthy, reliable, non-smoking person with an out-going personality and positive attitude! I go beyond caregiving and help with various tasks to keep my patient happy and safe.

I hope to bring a smile each day to every client I work with; I'm a very positive person and reliable. I have nearly 30 years experience in the healthcare field. I was working in a factory setting in my youth and really was not happy. I saw an ad for a CNA class at the Rochester Manor, so by keeping my job and taking the class at night, I was able to learn a whole new career, which has been so gratifying. The people that I have been able to meet over the years are truly inspiring, and they all have a story to tell, and I enjoy lending an ear.

My name is Connie and my mother's name was Carol. I took care of her until her early death at 53 for 10 years. She had MS. After being in the veterinary field for 20 years, I've gained a level of comfortability with all things clinical and medical. I adore the elderly and have experience with Alzheimer patients and those with dementia. I think I would make a great addition to your family's health care plan and can really make a difference in your loved ones daily life. I'm a happy person and try to bring that to my clients everyday.

Hello! My name is Kim. I have been a caregiver for 30 years, having taken off time while my daughter was in high school. I have an extensive amount of experience ranging from cancers to dementias to end of life and so much more. I would be happy to share. I am also an advocate, friend and offer support for both the patient and family. The expectations and standards I set for myself are: 1) Dignity and respect 2) When I walk into someone's home, I'm walking into their world. I dont expect them to walk into mine. Its about them and their needs. 3) Everyone is an individual. Same diagnosis does not mean the same kind of care. My care is based on the individual and their wants and needs. 4) Patience and being a great listener. How else will I know what is needed and wanted. I have provided care for many people. I've been told I probably know it all but I dont and I won't until I've taken care of everyone! Each person is different and I am always learning. Thank you for considering me! Kim McIntire

I have always enjoyed working with people and have missed that since retiring from nursing a few years ago. I love getting to know people, finding out their interests and hearing their life stories.
