I first started as a Live-In Caregiver under Active Global back in 2016. My first client was a 78-year-old ahgong with a history of diabetes, dementia, and stroke. Sometimes ahgong would get so upset that he did not want to see anyone â during those times, I always reminded myself to treat him with kindness, and focus on doing my best as a caregiver. Eventually, he would calm down and talk to us nicely again.
I took care of ahgong for more than 8 years, helping him with activities of daily living, monitoring his vital signs, keeping his space tidy and making him soup from time to time. I started my days with ahgong greeting him with a warm smile and taking him to the coffee shop nearby for some breakfast. At home, I guided him through simple exercises to keep his muscles engaged, and helped him spend his free time with his favourite pastimes like reading the newspapers or watching the TV. I genuinely enjoyed caring for him. Time passed so quickly and I was deeply saddened when he passed away, as he had become such an important part of my life by then. I am very thankful to have had the opportunity to meet and care for him.
My next client was an ahma who required NGT feeding and regular wound dressing. I focused on making sure she was as comfortable as possible, giving her bed baths twice daily, turning her every few hours to prevent bed sores and changing her diapers regularly. Although she could not speak, I never let that hinder our connection. I would talk to her about the weather, share some stories or describe what was happening outside â her eyes and small expressions were enough to tell me that she was listening to me. I also played her favourite TV programmes and sat beside her as she watched, while guiding her through light exercises to keep her active at home. I held her hand every once in a while to reassure her she was not alone. My goal was always to give her not just care but warmth, dignity and companionship that she deserves every day.
I truly appreciate Active Global for giving me these opportunities. I have gained so much knowledge and experience since joining Active Global, and I truly appreciate everyone here for giving me these opportunities. I highly recommend my fellow caregivers to be part of the Active Global family too.
