Personal achievement that I proud of is I reach Master Program in my education. So I am an educated caregiver, I can explain about how important for their blood circulation.

I do this with one client who has Parkinson disease and heart failure. For clients that have UTI, I explained to the family member how to clean rightfully and with the clients who has ulcer or bed sore how to heal or treat those sore. I work for hospice.
