I would best describe myself a caregiver who is patient. I understands that there may be changes in plans, things may not go as quickly as planned, and there may be a little hesitation at times on the part of the person receiving care. I am also attentive to the needs and changes that are taking place so that I may notice when there are emotional or physical changes in the person that I am caring for. Nevertheless, I am compassionate towards others and I understand what he/she may be going through. Moreover, I am dependable and I understand that it is imperative that I be punctual and that as a caregiver I show up to provide adequate care. Last but not least I am trustworthy and I will actively work to build and maintain trust at all times. I have a love of helping others it is one of the reason why I decided to become a Social Worker. I am currently in school at the University of Southern California and I am working on my Masters Degree in Social Work and I am invested in becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.
