I'm a great caregiver because I come in the the family's home and I make their Lives easier. I come in to help not only the client but their daughters/sons/grand children as well. I always try my best to help out where I can, and to try to make the client feel safe and protected at all times. I started be a caregiver for my grandmother about 10 years ago. We had found out that she had heart disease and kidney failure , And dementia, and at her age we decided since she was declining we all pitching in at a family to keep her at home. I love seeing her face everyday when I come over to be with her, she didn't remember who I was, but looked forward to seeing me everyday. I enjoy being someone a family can depend on to be their for their family members and sitting and talking with the client is so much fun and educational all at the same time.
