My goal is to do in home care or overnight hospice/palliative care. I've been told by many that it's a horrible and depressing job to but I find it to be the biggest honor to be the support system and caregiver to someone during one of life's most personal moments .which is passing on. The way I entered this field was just being a housekeeper on the floor of a senior living facility when I was promoted to a overnight caregiver . My superior was impressed by my ability to go above and beyond my tasks when requested or needed such as assisting staff moving a resident into their room and being alongside maintenance to take care of a massive flood in the basement of the facility . One of the biggest moments for example there was a day when a resident had gone outside on a cold winter day and slipped On ice resulting in a fall. A hospice nurse luckily found the resident and helped them of the ground and to their feet . I had witnessed the situation and was proactive rushing outside to guide the resident back inside .Holding their hand and retrieved staff to evaluate the resident immediately. All in all I'm a reliable and dedicated person in all aspects of my life. At home and at work.
