I am happy I enjoy laughing and smiling .I have been doing this type of work for over ten years simply because I love it....I am a people person.I am proud that my last patient got back on his feet after I was there helping him and encouraging him that he coukd do it and in a few weeks he did it and no longer needed me.That was the happiest days of my life.I enjoy fixing there meals helping them get dressed for the day so we can get srarted...If they have meds to take I will make sure they are tooken..If they are capable of going out we will take a ride but if not then we will do things inside tge home.play cards..checkers ect.If they are bed ridden I will make sure they stayed dry and eat there food and roa turning them from one side to another ...If they are in a wheel chair I will pivet them from the bed to there wheel chair...I can not exspress how much I enjoy helping the elderly It brings happiness to me and to them..I am use to working with bed sores I know how to change the band aids on them and to keep them clean.
