What makes me a great caregiver is that, I'm loving, compassionate, and very caring. What made me become a caregiver is my great grandmother that I was caring for had Dementia. And I have been a caregiver/Cna since 2005. What attracted me to being a caregiver is that I truly love to help people especially the people who can longer do for themselves or who just need companionship. What I love most about being a caregiver is just being able to help someone and make their life a little bit easier and bring them comfort. My personal achievement that I'm most proud of is being able to advancing in the medical field. I went from a caregiver, Cna, phlebotomist , to a future medical assistant. I have also been a Cna for the past 15-16 yrs working in long term care facilities.
