I believe that a caregiver should have a caring heart. They should have a love for what they do. They should have patience because some of the situations we come across, we have to be patient and we need to have love for the work that we do. So yeah, those are the essentials that a caregiver should have.
I remember a time where one of my patients, I'm working mostly in the independent areas. I just assist with food and with hygiene. So this one patient, she managed to do everything by herself. So this one day, she had a mini stroke. My colleagues didn't see that, but immediately when I went to go and check on her, I found out that her speech was not as usual as it was. And that's when I called my colleagues and asked them if there's something different about her, only to find out that, yeah, she was having a mini stroke. And we called an ambulance. And then when they got her to hospital, it was confirmed that she had a stroke during the night. And when we got there in the morning, she rested, she was sleeping. She was one person who loved to sleep, so we couldn't see anything. But then when I went, did my rounds to check, that's when we found out that she had a mini stroke. So it was confirmed in the hospital that she had a mini stroke at night when she went out for a smoke. That's when we found out that she had a mini stroke. So that's how I managed to help her discover that she had a mini stroke before it got worse, because it was preventive thing.
