One of the best qualities a caregiver can have is a sense of empathy for those being cared for. Whether you're caring for a small child in daycare or helping an elderly person recover from surgery, a sense of personal understanding and connection is vital. Good caregivers understand their charges may feel vulnerable, scared, confused and uncomfortable, and being able to identify and allay these fears can create a sense of calm and trust for those being cared for. People receiving care typically lack the ability to be fully independent and self-sufficient, which can lead to frustration and lashing out. Whether it's a child who can't express his hunger or pain verbally or a paralyzed house-bound individual who feels trapped and out-of-control, patience is vital to the role of caregiver. You must be able to separate yourself from potential anger and resentment and not take the situation personally, all while still providing high-quality care services. Good caregivers know how to calm and sooth their charges. People in care-giving situations must often be prompted to eat, drink and cooperate to some degree in their own care. Being a voice of encouragement is a good quality for a caregiver, as is the ability to calm and reassure those being cared for. Reliability is a vital trait in a caregiver. People receiving care come to rely on and depend upon their caregivers and often feel a sense of personal attachment. Caregivers must continually be on time, particularly if administering food or medical care is part of the position's responsibility.
