I think I am a good caregiver because I have a lot of patience, tolerance, understanding, affection and respect for the elderly and their dignity. I discovered that quality with great pride and satisfaction when I attended my mother for many years before she passed away. Also, I like to be useful to those who are unattended when they reach a stage in life where they most need someone to serve them. Mainly I enjoy the feeling that I have when I can support those who can no longer take care of themselves. One of my greatest achievements and satisfactions is having managed to take care of an old woman and in only three weeks she managed to stop taking the medicines that had almost debilitated her. She became a more active person because of the better care and affection he received under my care. I was also instrumental in improving your health by changing your diet and the care received with your medications.
