My name is Hope and I'm 19. I learned how to be a caregiver from my mom. Growing up I always had to help take care of her because of her lvad. I was always going to the doctors with her and wanted to be one when I grew up. The things I enjoy most about being a caregiver is connecting with the clients and their families. I love hearing about what jobs the clients worked, and learning about what kind of hobbies they like to do. Having a good relationship with the client and the clients family is very important to me to help the client get the best care!
