* What are your personality traits or expertise that help you be a great caregiver? I am a positive, fast learning, dependable person, who most of all enjoys helping and caring for others. Through my caregiving experience I have grown to have a great compassion for my clients in their needs. I always try my best to have a balance between a good mix of professionalism and a nurturing, caring nature. I normally tend to bond and get to know my clients as well as possible , normally I'll ask about their interests that can possibly be shared, such as watching a particular sport or listening to a certain kind of music. Since we will be spending plenty of time together, I feel shared interests can make visits more enjoyable for everyone. * What attracted you to being a caregiver? I was once exposed to social and physical injustices that many children, teenagers, and elderly with disabilities were going through. I saw their living conditions, and how unfairly they were being mistreated, it angered me but most of all saddened me. Since then I've grown to have a sense of need to better, and make a difference in their lives. * What do you enjoy most about being a caregiver? I take pride when it comes to attention and detail. I really don't want a desk job; I like being physical in my job and using my body as well as my brain. I like doing work that has the potential to make a difference in someone's life. I strongly believe in karma, and I feel that when I'm older, I'd want someone like me there to help me if I need help. * What is a personal achievement you are proud of? A personal achievement that I'm most proud of has been my time management, as a full time student, and as a past full time employer, despite my busy schedule I was able to maintain good grades, and receive several scholarships to study abroad in Spain this last fall semester.
