About Kalysta

One of my strongest personality traits as a caregiver is the ability to listen and help when a patient is feeling in distress or overwhelmed and just help calm them down and find a compromising solution that helps everyone Attracted me to being a caregiver was I grew up with a brother that was special needs and I really did not like the way that his caregiver treated him so I wanted to make sure that other people were treated fairly and help as much as I could Enjoy being a caregiver is being able to give my patience the best quality life I can give them and just remind them that they are human and they deserve to be treated as such My personal was a client who refused to go out into the community wear short sleeves or shorts even in 90deg weather and was just a total shut in and after working with him for about a year, we got him to go to the pool in the summer in a swim shirt short and he socialized the whole day

I'm a spiritual, very compassionate, and empathetic caregiver. I like to pay attention to detail. I believe in schedule but understand when it can't be kept. My helping my great grandmother when I was a child has paved the way of caregiving for me. I enjoy meeting people and learning from them. I'm a giver and helping others is what I do. Knowing that I am making a difference in someone else's well being for the better. Is self fulfilling. Knowing that I have left a positive mark on others lives. Is something I'm very proud of. That at the end of the day I have shared my love to others is a truly great feeling.
