I love the health career I'm in its such a great feeling to help people in need and to go asleep at night knowing that person was able to get through another day with your help. I became a caregiver because of my grandma she's been a AFC host since i was about 6 years old and loved watching the individual she took care of and still does become family to us and watch him become a better and healthier person. I enjoy that i can change someones life with just a little help and make them happy at the end of the day by even just having a conversation with them. I was proud of finally giving back to my elders by getting my HHA certificate and continuing on in a field I'm passionate about.
