I became a caregiver at the age 16yrs old my aunt was bed bond for most of my life couldn't really do anything so I took on the responsibilities to make sure she was well taken care of. She did have a nurse but I felt she didn't do a great job. the things I like about being a caregiver I love to help others that need that extra hand when needed cause I have been around a lot of people in my family that has always need that extra hand. the achievements I am proud of are grad from high school taking great care of my family and friends and always have a open mind to new things. I am free spirit kind of women very outgoing love to help and see others smile. I am a fast learner and can adjust to any and everything.
