Stroke Caregivers in Eagle Rock - 10 caregivers found

Hi! My name is Jeannie and I'm 36yrs old. I've been a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and Registered Medication Aide (RMA) for 10yrs. I grew up with my grandparents all my life and as they grew older, health problems slowly arose and I started assisting them more and more and fell into a caregiving role at a young age. My grandmother has COPD, HTN, DM, Anxiety, Neuropathy and Arthritis. My grandfather has dementia, vertigo and stage 3 renal failure. I am Now his caretaker at home, he's on hospice. I've worked in home care and assisted living care. I'm a very compassionate, caring person whose always loved helping others and knew this was my calling. I am now also looking into furthering my education and career and signing up for nursing school.

I'm very patient, honest, and hard working. I do care very much about my recipient/patient and get along well with people. I feel like it has been my calling to be a caregiver and help people. I like doing what I can to make people feel better and feel happy :) I have also been helping currently disabled mother since 2011. I'm available 5 days for total of 15 hrs/week, Monday-Fhursday between 9:00 am - 12:00 pm.

I have a passion for helping others. I most like being able to assist my residents/patients on improving their daily activities to where they are able to assist themselves more. Small steps add up to be the bigger outcome and the joy of seeing them succeed is wonderful. My personal achievement is paying close attention to not only the small details but the the bigger ones as well. This allows me to catch certain situations before a worse outcome appears. Example, bed sores, wound care, range of motion, stroke ext I'm dependable, passionate about my work and I always go that extra mile to help my residents / patients succeed on a daily basis. I am currently on the safety committee at my full time job to ensure not only my employees stay safe, but my residents / patients and visitors

I am an LPN I enjoy helping others I am most proud of being a mother of 2 successful individuals I received my nursing license in the summer of 2000, I have worked in schools, hospitals and Skilled nursing, rehab floors. Things I enjoy on my free time are gardening, hiking and biking.

Some of my traits that are defined as being useful are that I am open-minded, caring, driven, understanding, and available to meet all needs of those that need personal one-on-one care. A few things that attracted me to become a caregiver are the smiles that I am able to put upon their faces, gaining the wisdom of the senior community about the choices I make in life, and knowing that I am able to help them stay out of nursing facilities and receive the care they deserve while continuing to reside within their own homes. The one thing I enjoy the most is being able to care for them and provide them an opportunity for a better life. The one personal achievement that I am most proud of is that none of my clients have ever had a fall on my watch. I have been able to keep them protected and away from the harm that falls could cause to them mentally and physically.

Hello. I am the oldest child of 4, I was born into a caregiver role. I originally thought I wanted to be a nurse, however while in nursing school I realized that I would never be able to give my patients the time and attention I felt they deserved. I enjoy helping people. The satisfaction of knowing someone actually cares about their well being and listens to what they have to say means a lot to me. My own personal success story happened while matched with a child who after about a year had a total personality change, became affectionate towards others, no longer was,violent, and began to enjoy activities and the company of others.

I became a caregiver because I like helping people and want to know I am making a difference in my field of work. I particularly enjoy the senior population. It is very rewarding to know I made an impact on someone's day at the end of each work day. I receive personal satisfaction to know that I have helped someone who may not be able to fully help themselves. What a joy! I am proud of the fact that I can do whatever I put my mind to do. I have done many things throughout my life: received my Bachelor's degree in Accounting and worked as an auditor and received my license as a massage therapist and was self-employed for most of the years I was in practice. I also have been a fitness instructor and have completed certifications in that field. In my 20's and 30's I was a nanny and thoroughly enjoyed the children. Of all the things I have done in my life, I prefer those occupations that are helping those in need. I have found that to be true throughout the different career paths I have taken. In my leisure time, I enjoy walking and playing with my dog, which is a fairly new "hobby" for me. Now I know and understand those that say their pet is a member of the family. She brings joy to my life! I have always been health and fitness minded. I aim to take care of myself and do things to promote my well-being and state of health. I also enjoy my time in women's Bible studies, to share and grow with other women of faith.

Most important thing about being a caregiver it's being a companion and being there for someone mentally when they are going through a sickness or they're disabled to keep them upbeat and to keep them going everyday I have a laid back personality and I love to make people laugh and make them feel comfortable and know that they are important and that they're cared about

I am the caregiver who is just like family. My own middle sister is disabled and can attest I have spent a lifetime assisting and helping her maintain her own sense of independance and quality of life. Everyone deserves love, compassion, and respect. The best part of my life is helping you enjoy yours!
