Always have had a heart for the elderly. Everywhere I go, I'm always trying to help some elderly person some where. I believe I have the gift of service. Even if I'm not working, I am working somewhere for someone. I'm a person who pays attention to details. I'm patient, caring, compassionate. I value others. Knowing how I want to be taken care of, and what makes me comfortable, makes me a great caregiver. When my mom had cancer in 2008, I was already a caregiver at that time, but taking care of my mom, just took me to a higher level. Having compassion and patience and understanding that I didn't know I had. I will always be a caregiver at heart, whether I'm working or not, it's just in me. Thanks.
