I came a caregiver because I like that fact I'm helping someone else rather just caring about me. I've always took care of people. It started off when I was 18 when I was caring for my Ill grandmother. I took care of her for 2 year's, before she left. Then I started working with kid's which was fun as well. I like taking care of others, because I always say to myself what if this was my loved one,so I always try to make anyone in my care as if they are my family. So as the the year's went by I decided to better myself and go to school for medical assisting. I graduated. I'm currently working in a care home. While working there,I've been sent to classes for my CPR and First Aid;as well as being a certified med passer,through Gtube,oral. I love people, and I want to believe people love me. I value my family above all aspects of life. Without them I wouldn't be who I am today.
