1. I became a Caregiver because I like to help those who are in need of help. I have grandparents that are at the age of 80and above and I know most families need help keeping an eye on their love ones. 2. What I like the most about being a caregiver is knowing I can help someone that needs help and give them love and care and be able to help them with their daily activities. 3. My personal achievement has been making my parents and family very proud of me. My family is very proud of the career i have chosen, being able to show my love and care for others. 4. My name is Karina Ramirez, I am 23 years old and I am a Private Attendant, I started working as a caregiver since the age of 18 with Silverado at home care, since November 2011. I am very easy to get along with, I have my own transportation and I am also bilingual. I enjoy my job because my experience have made me grow not only career wise but also personal. I love what I do and I always try to do my best and make sure my client is happy at all times.
