I became a caregiver because when 9 years old my grandfather was in the nursing home and my family and i went to see him daily. So as a child i would watch the nurses care for him. They asked if i wanted to help brush his hair and so i did and every since then i wanted to become a caregiver. I love care giving because the thought of helping someone who cant help themeslves is heart warming. Im a stong minded person who loves helping others. I would give you the shirt off my back if you needed. Im a people person i get along with other really well. I have been a CNA/HHA since 2008. I love what i do.
