I have been involved in taking care of the elderly most if my life. I took care of my grandfather until he passed away assisting in bed baths, feeding and household cleaning. I fully understand the needs of our elderly as I also am the sole care taker of my mother who is s dialysis patient with special needs and assistance. I have extreme patience and humilaty and love to be around our elders. My attraction to this field was the love of my Grandpa and my compellation to take care of him for all he did for me. I love the fact that our elderly have such vadt knowledge and wisdom of all their life challenges and the structure they had in their life and the wisdom they give to you it fasinates me how strong they truly are and wise. I am extremely proud that I have been given the opportunity to give to those who have given all their lives and just need a bit of assistance in their senior lives gives me a lot of comfort knowing I can give back in a small way.
