I adore elderly people. I would go to elderly facilities and visit a few of the patients, sit and chat or join them in the activity of the day there. I have the best personality for carrying, I'm a very patient person, compassionate and helpful. I guess what attracted me to caregiving is my mom, plus my family is full of nurses. What I enjoy most about caring, is being a companion to my client and hearing their life stories. A personal achievement that I'm proud of, would be a client of mine telling that I was a comfort to her and that she was glad to have me around; Hearing that touched my heart.
