I never knew how patient I was until I worked with elderly. I learned that they have more life experiences then me and they deserve all the respect needed. I worked for a 97 and 98 years old elderly couple for over 3 years. After several months of my hire I bonded so well with them that I treated and considered them as my grandparents. Sadly, they have passed on, but i still connect with their daughters. What I love most about this caregiver position is that I am able to willingly offer a helping hand to one who isn't completely capable. It makes me feel good that I can make someone else feel good. As a graduate in Elementary Education I never expected to join this field as a caregiver for elderly. Sincerely, I don't regret it. I believe my purpose is here knowing that one day my parents will need my help as they age, so why not practice now.
