I became a caregiver when my grandmother to sick and I had to take care of her. That is what made me start being a caregiver. I love taking care of people, I treat my patients like family and do everything I can to make them happy and comfortable. Being a caregiver is very important and take special people to do the job. My personal achievement was when I went back to school and graduated as a Certified Nursing Assistant, EKG Technician, and Phlebotomy Tech. I really didn't think I could do it but I did. Graduation day was the happiest day ever. I decided to go back to school, and now I am going to school for Radiology Technician. I am a loving and caring person, I am also easy to get along with. I work very hard and do my best at whatever I do. I've worked as a caregiver for about 9 years. I have enjoyed doing that type of work and trying to get back into it.
