Dorcas’s Bio
I love being a caregiver because it gives me the opportunity to make a real difference in someone’s life. I find great fulfillment in being there for people during times when they need support, care, and compassion the most. I have always had a nurturing heart, and caregiving allows me to use that gift in a meaningful way—whether it’s helping with daily tasks, offering companionship, or simply making someone feel valued and safe.
I have over 9 years of experience in caregiving, working with clients of all ages and needs, including the elderly, individuals with dementia, and those with physical disabilities. I’ve provided both in-home and facility-based care, supporting clients with bathing, dressing, meal prep, medication reminders, mobility assistance, and emotional support.
I’m a certified CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant), and I’ve also completed training in CPR and First Aid. Over the years, I’ve developed strong skills in communication, patience, time management, and crisis response. I’m detail-oriented, dependable, and very comfortable working independently or as part of a team.my goal is always provide not just physical support, but emotional and dignity to every person I work with.
