This is a criminal background check required for all caregivers before they can message families.
Experience: 10 yrs
I am a caring, compassionate , reliable and patient caregiver. I am a certified Nursing assistant(CNA), home health aid and CPR certification holder. I have been caregiving for the last 10 years in nursing homes, group homes and in homes. I have a vast experience in dealing with almost each issue to do with giving care is concerned, I have handled patients with all kinds of ailments, all the activities of daily leaving, to the use of machines like Hoyer's lift. My background as a teacher makes it easier for me to create a rapport with my clients making the whole caregiving job fan. And finally, am comfortable driving my clients to anywhere.
To Whom It May Concern, It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Kariyo for the position of Personal Care Assistant. Kariyo worked with my family as a caregiver for my father in law from 3/1/2025 to 8/31/2026. I interviewed many candidates before selecting Kariyo. During our 1st meeting, with the father in law present, in a very short time, he was able to make really good suggestions that would be beneficial for my father in law. I knew immediately he was the right fit for my father in law. During this time, he has provided exceptional daily support, including assistance with mobility, meal preparation, medication management, and personal hygiene. Beyond his technical competence, Kariyo possesses a rare combination of empathy, patience, and incredible reliability. He always arrives on time. During the past 1 ½ years, he never called out. During the winter snowstorms, he would sleep over the night before to ensure he was available for the next day. I am especially impressed by how intuitively he learned my father in law’s routine and preferences, treating him with the utmost dignity and respect. My father in law refers to him as “Buddy”. Kariyo is a dedicated and trustworthy professional whom I recommend without reservation. He will be a tremendous asset to any individual or adjunct care at a facility. Sincerely, Maureen
