I really enjoy the elderly. Since I was a young girl I would sit with them ,talk with them, help them with chores around the house and always felt inspired as I listen to their stories and the wisdom that they have. When I grew up I became an Lvn And assisted them with more technical things like wound care and medications. In order to be a good caregiver you need to be able to listen and communicate compassion, understanding and caring to each individual person. I am very happy that I have continued to be a caregiver and truly enjoy it and grow from it daily .
