My great traits are I am patient, I am a great listener, I know when and how to use therapeutic communication I am compassionate I am dependable and I enjoy caring for people. What attracted me to become a caregiver is the fact that I love people and I love to help others. Helping others has always been a great part of my life and it gives meaning to my life. Any time I am feeling down that is when I go help others and it makes me forget my own problems and allow me to be greatful and thankful. Because no matter how bad my situation my seems there is always someone else out there who's life is far more complicated than mines. What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is that it makes me appreciate life more and the people who are in it. I love how much I can learn and have learned form my patients and most of all I enjoy the fact that I can help someone get through a rough stage in their lives. A personal achievement that I am proud of is 1 having my daughter and 2 going back to school to get degree in nursing. Which I am almost at the finish line so I am super proud of myself.
