About Maricela

About 10 years ago one of my family members was in a bad car accident that left him in a sleep coma since then my passion for the medical field grew. I enjoy meeting people and enjoy conversations, I get along with just anyone and that is what characterizes me as a great person. I have great people skills. I enjoy helping others anyway I can and that is why I love being a caregiver it is such a rewarding feeling knowing your making a difference in someones life, I don't see people as patients because soon they become family to me. I respect them and make sure that they are always treated with dignity and respect and as a caregiver that is very important to me. A personal achievement is to be in grad school and I still plan to continue to help people along the way.
