I'm a great caregiver because I take up my time with my patient & take the time in actually getting to know them & I talk to the patients to put myself into their shoes about how theyre feeling & what I can do to make their situation better or more comfortable. The love that I have for older people is what really drew me to care giving & especially after helping a few members of my family through their stages of when they were sick & couldn't do anything for their selves . I enjoy mostly taking care of the patient & seeing a smile on their face to know I either did, said or completed something to have them in a better place instead of their mind on their sickness & incapabilities. I'm proud because even after the trials & tribulations I've encountered I've managed to make someone's day
