Competence: Amada caregivers possess the knowledge, experience and training to provide exceptional senior care. They are competent in caregiving skills. They present themselves well and dress professionally.
Communication: Amada caregivers are proactive in asking questions and addressing any issues a client has. They truly listen and answer questions thoughtfully. They feel a sense of urgency and responsibility about making the person we care for as comfortable as possible.
Commitment: Amada caregivers are committed to doing their best to navigate delicate and challenging care situations. They are trustworthy, resourceful and hard-working
Confidently Humble: Amada caregivers are confident in their abilities, yet still willing to learn each client's unique needs and preferences. Good caregivers are not hesitant or fearful about engaging with clients, but also don't assume they know more about what a client needs than the client themselves or their family members.
Congenial: Amada caregivers are nurturing and foster a sense of connection and camaraderie with those we care for. Their warmth and communication helps clients under-stand how much we appreciate them.
