I honestly went right in to provider as a young 19 yr girl. This is my calling always will be to make someones day with just a simple gesture or a smile. I think what attracted me as young girl that cared totally 100 percent was just living the life I had and pushed myself to be a bigger and better person,I lived with my grandmother and then she lived in the nursing home and I would always go and be with her and the residents. I appreciated my life by viewing what others lived...Sometimes not so fortunate. Will I enjoy being a care taker to brighten someones day with a act kindness and just being myself...knowing I made a difference in someones Day. My personal acheivment I Made was always knowing that everyone knew that I worked with. Bosses Case managers Nurses.Doctors friends that I totally would Give 100 percent of me rather if it came out good or bad I was always viewed as A great employee and Friend ...Giving a 100 percent of me...
