What makes me a great caregiver is my passion to take care of others. The continuity of care I provide allows me to feel like family taking care of family. Many of my past patients have requested me personally. I became a caregiver over ten plus years ago caring for my maternal grandmother who was paraplegic. I was also a hospice caregiver for my paternal grandmother until her death eight years ago. Now I take care of my 11 year old daughter who suffers from lupus. God assigned me to the business of caring. I love being a caregiver because it fulfills my assignment from God. It completes me to know that I've assisted someone in their daily life and hopefully I've made a difference for them. The personal achievement I'd like to share is that my daughter was diagnosed eight months into my Patient Care Technician program meanwhile, I graduated on the deans list with full academic honors and a 4.0 GPA. Glory to God. Nursing is my passion and I intended on getting my BSN within the next two years
