I am a very caring and passionate person. I love helping other and being there to help make things easier for them so that they don't have to worry about it. What attracted me to wanting to become a caregiver is knowing that you have some people out that needs help but don't really have anyone that can be there to help them. Some families have to work so they can't always be there for their elderly family members and to know that I can be trusted to go in and help take care of and make sure their elderly family members of even disabled family is properly cared for and kept safe while they were away from home means a lot to me. I chose to become a nurse because not everyone can always get the care that they need or their families work so to be able to fill that role makes me happy. A personal achievement that I am proud of I would say becoming a CNA and now working my way into becoming an LPN in just a few months.
