I have always considered myself a caring person. I naturally feel the impulse to help someone if they are in need. Due to my experience I am able to assess a persons needs quickly. I take great satisfaction in helping my clients feel better, laugh or enjoy a good meal. I recently took an 8 hour class in Dementia. I feel that it will help me to better understand my clients that are suffering from this disease.
