I am a friendly and people pleasing person. I tend to get along well with most people and even if I don't, I can be civil with them. I am not very talkative but I am a good listener and can keep a conversation going. I have wanted to be a caregiver for forever. I love helping people out, helping to keep them doing what they like to do. I love the fact that I can help people feel comfortable in their own home when they may not feel like it. Even something as little as keeping people company and giving them someone to talk to is so satisfying and I love the feeling that I could make their day any better. I have a medical assisting certification and am good with in home health care due to my history in caregiving.
