What makes me a great caregiver is the fact that I am passionate about taking care of the elderly. It gives me a sense of purpose,and the fulfilment I get after taking care of my elderly clients, and to see their smiles on their faces. I knew caregiving was for me after working in a senior home couple years back. From this position I got the opportunity to help others, especially the elderly, which gives me a peace of mind like I have accomplish something when the day is done. Personally to see the smiles and thankfulness on my client's faces each day is a great accomplishment for me, to know they are happy in spite of everything..
