I am always on time for everything, I am always there as a companion. I wanted to become a caregiver when my great grandmother got put in a home and I knew I wanted to help her and the family. I enjoy the reward of peoples happiness and thankfulness. My personal achievement is graduating. I have lots of caregiving experience if I'm not sure how to do something I will always ask before assuming.

I love helping people, my heart is all in when I'm caring for my clients/patients. I can build strong relationships with the harder to care for clients, troubleshoot how to care for dementia/alzheimer patients rather quickly like for an example we had a dementia patient that had not had his teeth brushed in 6 months. I worked with his wife to get him a toothbrush and toothpaste that he used at home, he finally let us help do dental hygiene.
