I become a caregiver because I like to help people,especially when they are unable to care for them selves.i like that am able to use the different skills like do an EKG, or walk with someone or be of any assistance to a patient. Am proud of myself that I took this great step of making something of my self and that someone is benefiting from my achievement and that every day I am making a difference in someone's life,it feel good that it's not so much about the paycheck but about how I feel when I put a smile on someone's face especially when they are not feeling well and they are in an environment that are unfamiliar to them and it's something that they did not plan on and I help them to relax and not too stress ,it feels really good.
