I become a caregiver because it reminds me of taking good care of my father who passed away three years ago because of organ failure from being diabetic. Helping residents and making them happy makes me happy. I like being a caregiver because it always feel good to be a companion to someone. Not just taking care of them, but also being part of their life and vise versa. When something goes wrong, I try my best to make it right, if not, I make sure that I do something to make it better. I am twenty two years old filipino, very energetic and always happy and I was born in the Philippines. I have always loved to help people in need.
