1. I became a Caregiver because ever since I was a child I wanted to become a nurse. I've always wanted to help people. it is very challenging and i like every beat of it. 2. what I like about being a caregiver is the way that i care for the elderly. help them with their daily needs. My name is Berlande Fertil. I've been working as a caregiver for over 5 years. I'm a full-time nursing student at Brown Mackie College expect to graduate in january 2015. I'm looking for a position as a caregiver to gain more experience in the health care field also to help others live a better lives.
