I believe what makes me a great caregiver is putting the patient number one at all times. I believe the caregiver must show patience’s, good quality of work, be dependable, and have great communication about the patient's care among the family. The reason I became a caregiver is because I acknowledge the care a person needs to be given when they are not able to take care of themselves with passion and compassion. One motivation that inspires me to be a caregiver is give the patient the ability to smile again with the nurturing care you can provide and anticipate their needs. A personal achievement I’m proud with being a caregiver over these past 8 years making the patient feel happy in a daily basis with the great care you provided and going home with a good feeling.
