My love for helping other people is what makes me a great caregiver. I started taking interest in doing this kind of work because my father was diagnosed with brain and lung cancer 3 years ago and I had to help take care of him because I refused to let anyone else do for when I could be doing it. I later started helping out with my 92 year old aunt and uncle who suffered from onset Alzheimer's and it made me fall in love with the idea of helping others even more. My greatest accomplishment is when I got to see all my hard work from helping other people be able to live longer healthier lives all because I took the time to show them that I really care and love what I do. It means the most when you make your patients feel as if their part of your family and that you genuinely care for them
