I was taking care of my disabled mom and after my dad for many many years . I think the best caregiver is the person who has a sense of empathy and a sense of personal understanding and is able to connect to those being cared for. It is very important to be very patient and to be able to separate yourself from potential anger and resentment and not take the situation personally giving calmness and comfort. Providing home care giving services to those that would otherwise not be able to do so. The smile on their faces and laughter are exhilarating and make me feel I have done my job properly. I have always enjoyed helping people so I know I am in the right field. I take tremendous pride not only in my personnel appearance, but in also doing anything I set out to do! I am a quick leaner, have excellent visual & observation skills, and I am extremely responsible & dependable. My work ethic, innovation and belief of doing the job right the first time allowed me to be chosen as the Team Lead in my department after only one year of employment. In the past, my excellent work performance has been demonstrated by receiving several employee of the month awards (at several past jobs) and by being voted best associate by my peers.I can assure you that you will not be disappointed with who I am and the work that I do.
