Nadeen R.     Age 59      Female      Atlanta  - Inkberry Drive   Member ID: 29640  Seeking work as a : Caregiver / Companion  Position Type: Live-In or Live-Out, Full Time, Part Time      Join now for access this candidate's contact details       About Me   I am mother of two successful law abiding young men. The younger is living here in the US State of Georgia preparing to serve in law enforcement while the other is back home in Jamaica. I have been living here since 2013 in Colorado Springs, Colorado then moved to New Jersey independently where I worked as a Certified Home Health Aide then recently moved to Georgia in support of my son and his wife. Back home in Jamaica I served as an elementary school teacher for seven years and a business owner providing my community with essential goods and service for over twenty years. Knowing myself growing up my aim and ambition was to ensure that everyone is at a point or stage where they can help themselves whether they are young or old. I have the perception that I will not be happy until the people I interact with are happy. Therefore I put myself in position where I can contribute to society in meaningful ways. I believe that its the little things in life that we do that truly makes a difference and that its in giving that we receive. I am a people person who loves to laugh and put smiles on the the faces I interact with. I encourage people to be believe they are special and very unique knowing they all have contributions to make in life. I seek ways to educate them with the idea that whatever they feed their mind with, will determine how well they do in society. I really dislike when people who are loyal, hardworking and smart are being looked upon with blinded eyes. My hobbies include preparing healthy meals, interior decorating, interacting with people, crafts, writing and sewing for the home.      Valid Driver's License: No  Has a Vehicle: No  Can Swim Well: No  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: No  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: Jamaican  Background Check: Yes  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Christian        Work Experience & Education Background   1 years experience, 3 references I have worked with the elderly providing personal care such as bathing, grooming, food preparation, light housekeeping, companion care etc.      Skills:    Bathing Assistance      Bed Bath      Dressing Grooming assistance      Patient Positioning      Range of Motion Exercise      Toileting Assistance     Experience and skills with following Diagnosis :    Alzheimer's      Arthritis      Dementia      Incontinence (diapers)   Education/Training: Caregiver / Companion, Health Care Aides (HCA) Certificate      Job Preferences   Seeking work as a : Caregiver / Companion  Position Type: Live-In or Live-Out, Full Time, Part Time  Work Hours: 30 - 40 hours/week  Position Duration:    Less than 3 months      3 - 12 months      Occasional/As Needed   Prefer to work in:    Home Health Care      Retirement Homes     Desired Start Date: May 07, 2016  Desired Salary: Negotiable salary  Willing to travel : Yes  Duties:    Housekeeping      Laundry      Supervise Home      Clean Bathroom      Assist with Walking      Hand Wash Dishes      Escort to Appointments      Plan Visits, Outings, & Trips to Visit Neighbours, Friends, Family      Bathing Assistance      Alzheimer/Dementia Care         References   BP Senior Care  I worked for BP Senior Care as a Certified Home Health Aide and Companion Care for an on and off period in the State of NJ when work was available.
