What I like about being a caregiver is that I know I am helping some ones life be a little easier, be there for them when they cant do much for them selfs. I wanted to continue doing caregiving after my mother pass away she always told me I would be a good nurse some time I still looking forward to it. I personally like my job because I am showing my patients that there are people that have the skills to be there when ever is need it, there is also support, compassion, love and respect, and at the end of the day it gives me the satisfaction that I help someone and made the day easy on the patient and/or the family....I always think what goes around comes around and so do good that way later in life we get some one good to take care of us.
