I began Caregiving about 3-1/2 years ago because while working at a major retailer I really started to notice how many elderly people there are that need someone to help them out without taking advantage of them. I enjoy the feeling that I get when I see my client smile because they either did something on their own or just because they are happy. I wouldn't call it an achievement more like a huge compliment. My previous client's friends would quite often mention to myself as well as many acquaintance of both myself and Bobby my client how they have never seen Bobby so full of life and happy. Bobby and several of his friends would tell me and others that I am the best thing that ever happened to him. I have extensive knowledge in Diabetic care as well as amputee care. I also have wonderful patience because my client was also blind
