I have a keen eye when/where it counts the most, with our loved ones. Many changes go unnoticed when it comes to senior care. I am always looking for changes in behavior, abilities, apatite, mood, ect. I keep open communication, I believe this is key when it comes to working with families. I have always enjoyed helping others so when I got the opportunity to become a caregiver, I jumped for it. When I first became a caregiver, almost 4 years ago, I had no experience. I love what I do, not only because I enjoy helping those who cannot help themselves but because of the stories that come with the people I am caring for. listening to the wonderful lives they've lived is really rewarding. I am so proud of myself for coming this far when it comes to my experience with elderly care, I always look forward to learning more and broadening my skills.
