Dear Sir/Madam:
Please consider my application for the position as a live in caregiver.
My name is Myra Calingasan, a Filipina, I am 34 yrs old I am the fourth child. I
worked in Israel as a live-in caregiver for 8 years and a half. For 8.5yrs I’ve
been to Israel I’ve worked for 1.5yrs for an old woman 90 yrs old Marta
Schmidek, she's still active and independent I'm helping her to go to the
bathroom, giving her all medicines and check her blood pressure in a regular
basis, accompany her to her doctor and take prescription as well, shop for her
needs and everything she needs in her daily activities.
I also worked for 5yrs for an old woman age 76yrs old, Ahuva Karavanny
she’s diabetic with amputated right leg, I helped her to transfer from her bed
to wheelchair vice versa, check her blood sugar at blood pressure in a regular
basis, cooking and cleaning the house. And I also have experienced working
with an old lady age 94yrs old Regina Schechter for almost 2yrs she’s is bed
ridden cant talk and speak but I able to communicate with her feed her for an
hour and do some enema to help her bowel movement for she can’t be able
to do it by herself.
I have experienced also in babysitting to my niece. I took care of her since
birth until 8 yrs old. While I was studying in college I worked as a nanny to my
sister because I'm living with her as an exchanged she provide everything for
my school needs like tuition fess, misc fees and etc. I prepare food, change
diaper, give her bath and accompany her to doctor for vaccine and check up
ask well.
Taking care of an elderly is not an easy job but its a fulfilling job for me
because I was be able to help other people and sometimes save their lives in
danger and it need a lot of patience which I have and I am enjoying it because
I can give happiness to other people especially to those people who are in
need like elderly people.
I am very patient, trustworthy, fun loving person, flexible in terms of working
condition.
I can easily adapt in terms of the nature of work as well as the environment. I
am fast learner and hard working.

Myra Calingasan
