What makes me a great Caregiver is God's Love and Compassion I Have for people. My Passion is taking care of the elderly. I have a Wonderful and Bubbly personality that will change the atmosphere when I walk in. What attracted me to being a caregiver because I took care of my granda which suffered from being partially Blind and suffered from Prostate Cancer until he passed away at 97. I took care of my aunt which suffered with Kidney problems back and forth to dialysis and she suffered a stroke on Left side. I also was a Live in for two brothers one with Cancer and one with Diabetes with one leg amputation. There is nothing really more to say is that I took care of them because I love helping people and they requested me to be their caregivers. This is what attracted me , It felt so me like this was what I was born to do. What I Love the Most about being a Caregiver is Listening at their stories and making them happy. I Love going beyond to make sure they are comfortable.. What I mean going beyond. I may massage their hurting hands, Legs and feet or cook their favorite meal or transport them to an outing to get some fresh air. Just to help them stay Mobile and keep their spirits alive. Sometimes they lose their confidence and they need their nails or toes Polished or assist them with things they used to do that they thought was gone. My Personal achievement that I am proud of is starting my own Business.
