What makes me a great caregiver is being able to show empathy and compassion, to see my assignment more a ministry and calling than "work". I love people and working with families. I chose this area of work because it relates to my persona in that i am a natural , caring person by nature. My greatest achievements are when I am able to see results from the care and compassion I give. For example, when I have successfully been able to transition a patient from a state of "depression" to a sense of well-being and hope. I integrate this by instilling positive attitude, care and love for my clients with genuineness . I enjoy what I do and love getting up in the morning to make a difference the patient and families' lives. Additionally, I feel that I am better capable of caring for families given my wealth of experience from working with children in primary education as a certified childcare giver to going into the medial capacity working with families of all ages including geriatrics. I have worked in the medical field for over 20 years with the last of my years as a Medical Assistant in Orthopedics.

I am a care giver because everyone goes through something in life but you want to know when you do you are not alone. Families work, have errands all things that you can not drop daily to assist a loved one 24/7. My mother got sick when I was 12. So I've gained ample experience with providing full hands on cars at times. I went into this line of work because I believe anything is possible with hope. Some challenges can be overcome with assistance and I'm the one to whole heartedly offer it with patience, empathy compassion, trust and being a honest person who stand for good morals and values.
