My personality traits that would help me be a great caregiver would be compassion, patience, and dependability. I would treat my residents as if they were my own family members. What attracted me to being a caregiver would be liking to help others and taking care of my elderly family members. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is seeing my residents smile and knowing that I treated them with dignity. A personal achievement I am proud of is being able to persevere and wake up everyday to face new challenges.

Easy going person, very understanding, love to listen and learn from others. I have 9 years experience, currently in nursing school. FYI Help at home, assisted Hand.
