About Sandra

I'm a great caregiver because I'm friendly and outgoing person I have the patience and the ability to take care of others as they were my own. I decided to become a caregiver because since a very young age I have also been interested in spending time with other people I love to help and make people smile I completed my nursing studies in 2013. It was at this point I realize that caring for people especially the elderly was my calling. I like being a caregiver because I can get emotionally attached to a person I am caring for so if something goes wrong I am very much affected in saying that it makes me feel good knowing that I have made a difference in someone's life and brought them comfort during a difficult time. Sometimes that is easier said than done and when your client passes away or no longer requires your care it can be very emotional but knowing you had made a difference in a source of comfort. My personal Achievement is I'm proud of is that if I put a smile on my client face.
