caring for those who cannot care for themselves was introduce to me in the U.S. (Brooklyn). in 1986. I was looking after a 72 year old patient with early stage of Alzheimer's disease. Every week-end, it was a pleasure for me to be there. I fall in love with the care i was giving. Listening to her life story, and observe her not able to tell me where she leave, if she had a shower.She couldn't remember my name a;; the time, but the she smiles at me when she sees me, feels great. Knowing that i have great grand'ma and Grandma back then. I said to myself if i can get some skills, i will be able to help more, not only for my family,but for future client. When i was done i was so happy for the knowledge I've got. I start with Home health aide, to CNA and I love the way my customer feels after i spend time with them. I am compassionate about the care i provide to each individual.
