I have been a Caregiver for about 2 years caring for my dad who is deaf in one ear and considered legally blind through the VA. He is also a dialysis patient and a recent amputee on his leg. Caregiving has attracted me with wanting to persue this position especially since we are battling with COVID I know there is more needs for the position. I love being able to help another and make sure that any worries or needs are completely met before the end of my day. My personal achievement is when my dad got into a medical situation in El Paso TX and I took it upon myself to go move him here closer to me so I can make sure he is as comfortable as he can be. I have realized there are more people out there that needs assistant in even the smallest things. And I am more than glad to offer my help.
