I was introduced to care giving at a very young age my mother worked at an assisting living I would go with her to work and help out , I would bond with the elderly a lot I had my own personal relationships with them and it was always a cozy experience , eventually I would became a caregiver for my grandmother at the age of 16 I would get my grandmother prepared ( personal care denture , cleaning , dressing assistance , breakfast) in the morning for her day program before I went to school , After school the task would be bathing , dinner prep , bed padding change , medication management. I love care giving the help and relief I 'm able to give to families , the bonds I'm able to build. I believe one day we will all need help we may be older we may not but if we do require help at anytime we would want someone to treat us with care and compassion , I would want someone to take great care of my parents if I wasn't able to !
