I'm attracted to being a caregiver because I used to work in a nursing home as a cook an dietary aide, and seen some of them nurses mistreating the residents an it hurt because that could be anyone of my family member some day. So I wanted to make a difference in people's lives, I love people an listening to their story of life. Happiness, opportunity to grow an learn new things as well as making a long lasting companionship with the person I may be caring for is what I enjoy the most about being a caregiver. Personally completing my GED after being told I would never amount to anything, is one of my most proud personal achievements, besides become a father and raising my children the right way. Here are some personal traits and expertise that help me as well as set me aside from other applicants, they are as follows: I am very loving and understanding, I love too cook, it's my passion, I giving everything I do my all plus try to be the best at it, I'm optimistic and open-minded. Looking forward to speaking with you soon an potentially being your next Care Giver. Best Regards, Alvin L. Smith
