Experience: 5 yrs
I am a caring and dependable healthcare professional currently working full-time in a hospital. I enjoy helping others and making people feel safe, comfortable, and supported in their daily lives. I have hands-on experience assisting with personal care, companionship, mobility support, and daily routines. My hospital experience has taught me to stay calm under pressure, pay close attention to detail, and treat every individual with patience, dignity, and respect. I am available for part-time or weekend opportunities and am someone families can trust to be reliable, communicate clearly, and provide compassionate care. I am certified in CNA and BLS. I have experience working with individuals with a variety of needs. Like assisting with daily tasks, providing companionship, ensuring safety, I always give my best. I believe caregiving is more than just a job, it's about building trust, creating comfort, and treating people like family. I would love the opportunity to assist your loved one.
Akhona is exceptional, the care she provided to my wife, I can't express my gratitude enough. Her dedication and professionalism positively significantly impacted my wife's life. Her attention to detail, empathy, and commitment to her work did not go unnoticed. She cared for my wife with grace and compassion. The trust I had in her when she looked after my wife allowed me to breathe easier, knowing she is receiving the highest standard of care possible. My wife said Akhona made her feel safe and always had a way of making her smile. She was well prepared and compassionate. She was courteous, helpful, and thorough in addressing my wife's concerns and needs. Akhona has excellent communication skills and is dedicated to her work. Anyone would be lucky to hire her as a caregiver. In short, Akhona is beyond wonderful.
