I became a caregiver because I always knew I wanted to do something in the medical field, I knew that helping others is always been a passion of mine and I know that being a caregiver is one of the kindest jobs someone can have. What I really love about being a caregiver is the satisfaction of knowing I made a difference in that persons life. I think to myself, the day that I can't help myself the day that I am bed bond and helpless I want someone to take care of me with enough respect and integrity as I gave other people. I believe that if we are kind to others we will be treated the same in the future. Something I feel that I have achieved and am proud of is graduating high school and looking into furthering my education, I am proud of this because I am the first in my family to achieve this. I was really happy to make my family proud that day. I want to achieve so much more in my life and am going to get what I want soon with the help of God. I feel that furthering a career in caregiving is going to be one of my biggest achievements in my life. I think of myself as a caring person, humble, always thinking of others before myself. I also feel like I am more mature than other people at my age, being married at my age and wanting to further my education while juggling a husband and being really faithful to my religion can be a little other whelming yet I make it work and am happy where I am at. I really feel like if you hired me as your caregiver you wouldn't be disappointed
