    I love being with elderly people. seeing them happy and content to the assistance I provide is a very big reward for me. I am a very jolly and positive thinking person and being like this affects how i manage to take care of my client. I can be flexible too meaning that I am not working only as a caregiver but i can also help in the daily chores such as light housekeeping, doing laundry even gardening. I love to do things and I want myself to be busy.

    I don't want to lift my own chair by saying that I'm a good caregiver only my client can tell. But I can tell what was real the duties and responsibilities of a good care giver. 1. He/She takes care of the patient very well, and attends to all his/her needs. Like for example, preparing his/her meal; maintaining proper hygiene; and be with him/her all the time. 2. Love your patients as you love yourself. Treat them as if they were your own family. 3. Do light house keeping. 4. Properly give her/his medication on time. 5. Follow what your patient wants and not what you wants. Do not argue with him/her.
