I became a caregiver because I enjoy taking care of people. I like my job because I can make a big difference in my patients life which make me feel good. In the hospital I work at everyone can count on me for help, I have a very good work ethic. I worked in the same nursing home for 8 years plus I worked in the therapy department for a year. I have been working at a hospital for the last 2 years. I started in med Surg and have worked every unit mostly in the ICU. Helping my nurses recover open heart patients and people on vents. I have been trained to draw blood.
