From my experience of 7 years, working with other professional caregivers, clients, and families, the characteristics of me being a good caregiver would include: Demonstrating empathy and compassion for the senior, Supporting the patient's family members, who may be struggling to cope with their loved one's decline, Committing to professional growth and continuing education, Being reliable, including arriving for work on time and fulfilling all duties in a timely manner, Respecting patients' privacy and dignity, Exhibiting a positive demeanor and kind tone of voice, Being considerate and kind when working with the patient, Being mindful of the fact that I'm working in a senior's or their family's, private home. Using good communication skills with both the patient and the family, Having a well-kept personal appearance, including following professional dress code, Acting as a personal supporter for my client and their family during difficult times :)

I am an experienced caregiver that is outgoing, trustworthy and honest. Communication is key, especially working in this field. I've always been drawn to caregiving since a child. I would frequently babysit family members, and some had up to 6 kids, so multitasking one of my many skills. I love the feedback and appreciation I receive from clients and their families which motivates me more to continue my work as a caregiver.
