The personality traits that help me be a great caregiver is that I have empathy, I have a natural instinct to help, am a great listener, cheerful, and encouraging. I wanted to be a caregiver because I want to help people that can not fully help themselves and it also gives me good experience on my road to becoming an RN. What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is that I get to meet new people and learn about their life experiences and also be the one that cares and guides them to get back to their full potential. A personal achievement I am proud of is becoming a Team Lead and making sure that every resident I encounter is satisfied with their care.
