About Jenelle

What makes me a great caregiver is I'm extremely understanding and very reliable. I was offered a job 2 and a half years ago as a home care aide from my cousin through a local company it was just supposed to be temporary and I ended up really liking what I was doing and stuck with it for a little over 2 years but wasn't getting paid enough. I am trying to figure out what I still want my career path to be to support myself and my daughter. I am in college right now for nursing.

What makes me a great caregiver is that I am very helpful it's just natural for me in addition I have experience being with family members and having to take .care of them when no one else wanted to do so and I know that that takes a lot of time and patience and care and compassion and empathy and I have all of those different unique traits. I wanted to become a caregiver because just recently my grandmother was diagnosed with cancer and no one wanted to help her and so I thought about all of the people in this world nobody wanted to help and nobody wanted to be there for and being with my grandmother I saw how hard it really was for hard to get around and do her daily routine and someone like me can help others with those daily routines to make life and living so much easier. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is long that I'm able to help and learning something new and different about each person that I am able to help I love putting a smile on their faces and to be there as a person to listen and a helping hand.
