Renal and Urological Disorders Caregivers in Boone County - 4 caregivers found

Hi! My name is Judith but you can call me Judy if you like. I have been a full-time caregiver since 2012, and I am so fortunate that I am paid to do what I love! The thought rose up in me when my mother began to show signs of Dementia. We developed a bond that was very close and comforting for both of us. Since then every client is family and every challenge is so worth it! I think I was born to be a caregiver. I think that trust is the most important aspect of my profession. I have learned to be rigorous about making sure things are always where you put them. I don't look in cupboards or drawers unless I have permission to do so. If a client has faith in me they will exercise and eat and walk more readily. I am certified CMA (I am able to pass medications legally) and up to date on my CPR and First Aid Certifications. I think I am most proud (and grateful) for my ability to make clients feel protected and valued.

I first realized being a caregiver would be a good fit for me when my grandmother had moved in with me and my family so she could be taken care of. As the eldest son, I had to fill in for my mom when she wasn't available to provide care. I quickly realized I had a knack for building good rapport and providing efficient healthcare to patients when I become a CNA. I've been a provider of patient care ever since.

Nine years of experience with excellent references. I am a mature, honest care provider helping elderly clients stay in their own home. Helping with daily activities around the house such as housekeeping, meal preparation, medication reminders, shopping, etc. Also, transportation to physician appointments, social activities. I also have experience as a live-in care provider.

I've been a caregiver since I was 18. I've been doing so for 8 years now. It's definitely a passion of mine. I really enjoy caring for people and having their family know that they are in good hands.
