What got me into being a caregiver was people around me constantly telling me I would be good at working with the elderly because of the patience and warmth I bring to them. I love listening to their stories. I find them very fascinating but I also understand some like silence I respect that too. I try to encourage and keep them comfortable. I feel proud to say that every patient I have had has felt comfortable around me and that's my goal to make them feel comfortable and not scared of a random person coming into their life's.
