What makes me a great caregiver is my compassion,empathy and motivational skills ,I encourage participation in care the suits each individuals needs.i became a caregiver 12+yrs ago because my sister and mom required homecare and nursing home ,I was completely dissatisfied with care given and decided to take care into my own hands going to training and developing skills throughout the years that you can't learn in a class.whats makes me happy with this field is knowing I have abilities to help,give a sense of security to families and patients and provide for mines in an flexible less intense setting.I recently relocated and intend on completing last two years of Registered Nurses course and hopefully own my own homecare company one day.
