What makes me a great caregiver is I'm compassionate and very empathetic. Growing up my Great grandmother got sick from a stroke and I got to see the CNAs take care and aid the sick.Being surrounded by that environment, I knew I wanted to be more hands on with patients, and from then on I knew I wanted to be a CNA. During High school I took a CNA( Certified Nursing Assistant) class for two years, and right after high school I landed my first job at the exact n Nursing/Rehabilitation facility. Boy was the job difficult- but it challenged me to push myself harder and I gave 100% at all times. Being a caregiver is such an honor- it's about putting away your needs to assist others. Knowing that a smile on your face can bring joy and happiness to someone else is priceless. The moments when you can reflect back and see how you have helped change someones life is what caregiving is all about. A job that recently fell into my lap at a independent home where I provided personal care to an elderly couple as well as some household tasks. I must say working there was one of my biggest achievements. It was very inspirational:This couple were no longer patients they became family. Not only has it allow me to provide companionship and change lives , but it gave me the oppertunity to help those who couldn't help themselves. This is what's prompting me to further my career in caregiving.
