Respiratory Disorders Caregivers in Livingston County - 8 caregivers found

I'm a great caregiver because I take care of people with gentleness and kindness and dignity and respect as if it were my on family member.

I have been a caregiver for a little over two years now and have learned a lot. I have had experience in a nursing home, a hospital, and a group home. When I first started out I was very unsure about my job. I knew that I wanted to help people in need but didn't know if this was going to be the job for me. The longer I am in the medical field the more I love my job. I put 100% into my job and take care of my clients/residents. I am loyal, trustworthy, and very dependable. I have been raised to always treat others like you would want to be treated, respect everyone, and be kind. I remember while I was working in the nursing home I loved talking with the residents, they had a lot of cool fun stories of their lives. In all I am very compassionate about my job. At the end of the day it puts a smile on my face knowing I have made someone smile today.

I grew up with a huge family, my mother was a Foster care provider, my dad was a Chief Fireman, I am the youngest of 8children, I grew up watching my mom take care of handicapped children my entire life, I always loved seeing how happy it made her to be able to help someone, even if it were just by giving that child love, I've grown to follow her footsteps and I just love being able to help someone if I can, even if can't make them better health wise, I can help them feel better emotionally, everyone deserves the BEST CARE POSSIBLE, that's why I love doing this job! I'm experienced in all aspects of Nursing, I've done pretty much everything expected, I am Certified in Nursing, I'm in school for Phlebotomy, I worked 15yrs in Dementia Care, as well as Alzheimers. I'm very fun to be around and love the new experiences with each client.

I feel like what makes me a great caregiver is I put my clients or residents first. I care for them like I care for my own children. I chose to go into caregiving because at the end of the day I know I made a difference in their day making life a bit easier for them and giving them a better outlook on life knowing somebody is there for them. It's very hard for me to leave my residents because they have became part of my family, my family knows them all and even my children love my residents and my residents and coworkers love my family as well. I feel like I mainly chose this path because I wanted to be able to help others as much as others have helped and blessed me. If I can do it for my own family why not share my care with others who need it as well. It warms my soul to see my family and the people I support smile and feel loved because they know I truly care.

I have a wonderful personality, I'm a very loving person I've been working as an aide for 9 years. I started working in group homes and I loved it then started doing private care. I love being able to keep someone in there home.

A caregiver isn't a job for just anyone. You have to have special characteristics to provide excellent care, I am honest, trustworthy, friendly, punctual, caring, good listener, patient and selfless. My happiness comes from helping others. As I grew up I took care of myself, as a teen I moved in with my grandparents so I could take care of them ever since then it's always been my dream to help others. Also I have worked in nursing homes and it broke my heart to see how residents are cared for. People seem happier in their own homes so if there is something I can do to help them stay in their home I will do it. Through the years I've had several clients, I have never had a client that has not liked me. I am proud to say that I have brought happiness to other people's lives and provided the best care that I could.

I prefer working with people one on one and feel it's the best way to get to know someone, and give care. My favorite people to work with are those with schizophrenia and dementia/Alzheimer's. I've always wanted to be a caregiver in some way. My grandmother was a nurse, and we spent a lot of time together helping others in various ways. She taught me how to give care, and to help others when they need it. I saw what she did, and how it affected other people, and wanted to give that to others myself. I enjoy helping other people.

I love to smile! Being a friendly, loving, caring person who strives to be the best each day. Many years of experience with the elderly. I've been told i have great cooking skills, knowledge of dietary guidelines for low salt and low sugar diets . Working in conjunction with family and doctors to provide quality care of your love one. I am a motivated person who has the ability to make people laugh. My aim to please, putting others before myself. Reliable transportation, shopping, to and from doctors appointments, going out to be with family and friends, etc. I am skilled in all aspects of care giving.
