Parkinson's Disease Caregivers in Rockford - 28 caregivers found

I have worked with different clients and I have worked at a facility, adult family home, and one on one care. Caregiver is a great job that helps me to meet with different people and see the world in a different way. Being able to help another person is what I always wanted since I was young. Being a caregiver gives me an understanding of what other people go through. I even decided to pursue my education in public health because I wanted to learn different ways to help people. I have been a caregiver for almost 3 years now and I love it.

I have been doing this kind of work for about 40 years, l am a self starter, enjoy working with people.

First off, I would like to say that I very much have a heart for the elderly. I love engaging with them in conversation, and find myself drawn to caring for them. I sense that they quickly feel comfortable with me. Generally speaking, I am a very patient and compassionate person who can sense what is going on in the heart of another. I very much enjoy the process of getting to know somebody and finding out how I can best help them. As a nurse assistant, I'm very attentive, detail oriented, and enjoy organizing and planning. It would be my pleasure to discuss my work experience with you and see if I could be a good fit in assisting you with your needs. ~ God bless

I am CNA, HHA, Med-Tech, and now a Care Manager. I love helping others that are in need! I had a daycare for 18 years. I was looking for something else in helping others that's why I went back to school to become a CNA and HHA. I'm now in Care Management. I manage medication's, doctors appointments, transportation and oversight of senior care. Which includes case management that includes, family members that live out of state, that I oversee their family members to make sure they are receiving the best care. I love spending time with the elderly. I would not trade my job as a Care Manager/caregiver. I have taken care of many seniors, in the last 17 years and love it so much! It makes me feel so good when I go in to help others that are having a hard time taking care of themselves. And family members needing oversight of their family members in need of care. Vaccinated.

I'd describe my personality as energetic, helpful, and activity oriented. I started working with kids when I was a teenager, I was a cabin leader at the summer camp I'd grown up going to. In my spare time, I like to use my kayak and bake all sorts of goodies. One thing you should know about me is that I'm a mover, if there's an activity or something to go do then I'd much rather do that then screens.

I have worked as a CNA for over 16 years in a wide variety of settings including hospital, nursing home, assisted living, hospice and home health. I love working with seniors! They have amazing life stories, and I just really enjoy helping them . I have experience with memory care, medication assistance, and can provide references upon request. I would love to help your loved one to stay in their own home for as long as possible

I am a college student at Eastern Washington University, currently pursuing my major in nursing and minored in psychology. I am people oriented and easy to carry conversations with, on the daily. My home town is in Maui, Hawaii, as of right now Spokane, Washington is where I call home.

I am very compassionate. I treat every person with respect. I feel every person deserves to live the best life for them possible and my passion is to make that happen.

My girlfriend, who is a nursing student and a caregiver, recommended that I become a caregiver due to the lack of men in the field, my patience with those in need, and my desire to help others. I was skeptical at first, but have since worked with all kinds of patience with all kinds of needs. From a seventeen year old with autism to a forty year old with late stage MS, to an eighty seven year old with Parkinson's and Dementia. I have come to enjoy my clients and feel honored to assist them in their day to day lives.

I have been a caregiver for over 10 years. In 2009 I had my own adult family home business, where I took care of six residents. Few years after that I decided to go to college part time and study Nursing. Currently I am enrolled in Nursing school. My schedule is very flexible I can work nights, & weekends, & certain day shifts. I take pride in my work and I'm a very compassionate caregiver.
