My personality traits include kind, friendly, responsive, cautious,helpful,forgiving,polite, adventurous, and organized. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is building relationships with the residents and the people I'm caring for and getting to hear their stories and what their life used to be like. Also being able to care for them and make them smile is some thing I'm really big on. A personal achievement I am proud of is graduating with my associates at 19 most teenagers don't graduate college at that age and to know that I was dedicated and I worked hard through high school to be able to achieve this is something that I love to brag about. Another achievement I am proud of is getting into a BSN and nursing program at the age of 19 I am very excited to have that opportunity as well. What attracted me to be a caregiver is the type of relationships built with residence and the people you're caring for and I love to help people all types of people and my heart is very close with helping elderly people and people with disorders because I love making their day better and providing companionship and providing support and making sure they're taken care of and just making them smile is something that touches it warms my heart the most. I also love to hear about stories and about their past and it gives them a sense of comfort and it also makes them feel better being able to talk about what they used to be..
