About Myia

Hello! My Name is Myia Clarke and I am 24 years old. I have been working in care facilities and in homes since I moved back to Oregon in 2013. I graduated high school my junior year in Jackson Tennessee in 2013 before moving back to my home state. I started my caregiving career at 17 years old as a housekeeper and moved my way up through the years as I got older and eventually was Human Resources for a facility. I enjoyed it very much, but preferred to work hands on with clients for a better relationship. Choosing to be a caregiver was one of the EASIEST choices I've made as I've always considered myself one even before I was working age. I am the "Momma Bear" of my family.

I am a compassionate woman. I believe maintaining dignity and respect for all people. Especially, to those who cannot be as independent as they want to be. From personal experience, life can be forever changed in a second. I encourage independence when applicable and respectfully take charge of personal care. Every person is unique and their situation is equally unique. I avoid combative situations using distraction instead of response. I strongly protect every person's right to dignity, respect, love, compassion and PRIVACY! I am CPR certified. I am also a Chef who can cook, bake and decorate a cake for special occasions. Loneliness and isolation I respond with kindness and humor. As of 4/18/2021 Covid vaccine completed. Covid compliant.

I am a naturally caring person, who was raised by my grandparents, so I love and understand the elderly. I love hearing the stories of the past. I love getting to know the families and people involved in their lives. People are important and every person has value and a story to tell! I helped to take care of my grandmother as she was aging and I look back on that time w fond memories. Helping others stay in their home. Making someones life just a little bit easier can have great rewards. I took religion is college, of which I have 3 yrs. I have raised two children, and have been involved in my church over the years. I am now helping to raise two of my grandchildren which I adore! I am faithful and loyal, kind and gentle to others. I am honest and trustworthy.I love gardening, my grandchildren, and nature and all animals, especially cats and horses. In my younger years I was a CNA for about 10 years. Then helped my husband in the restaurant business for quite a few years, then went into janitorial at Hood River High Sch for awhile. I now have an additional 7 yrs (?) in caring for others. I love people! Now that I am a little older, I am enjoying taking care of the elderly and have a good understanding for what they need. I have been doing so for a number (10?) of years. I am a pretty easy going person to wk with.
