I started care giving at an assisted living home in Salt Lake City, it was 1 home with 10 woman, multiple medical problems. I am a people person by nature and I loved being able to mold myself to each individual person. These clients need someone so I don't believe you can go in there with the mentality that this is my job like a robot, most of the clients that require assistant at home need the nurturing and caring personality of another person someone who is will truly care about what their gong through in return provide the best care for them and make them feel safe and secure and comfortable .
