I make an excellent caregiver because I have been helping with the elderly since 1998, I enjoy helping and working as a caregiver as well as a CNA. When I am with my client, I show compassionate, caring, the love I have for the work and them, and joyful while I am with them. I am an honest, enjoyable, hard-working, love my job and sweet person. I am in college and will finish July 10, 2017, I will have my BS in Psychology and taking that to become a social worker with the elderly. I have worked in nursing homes as well, and I loved working there as well. Being a caregiver is different, and I like that I can be one on one with the client and can get to know them as well as giving them the time they need from me. Just to top it off I am a wonderful person to take care of others love ones, I also treat them as they are my love ones too.
