About Gladys

I feel and know am a great caregiver because I care about the people I take care of and I put my self in there shoes so I try to treat people the way I would like to be treated if I was in there shoes. I became a caregiver because I like working with people in need of help. I like being a caregiver because i believe in helping people that can't help them self and there's so many people out here in need of help and if i can help them and put a smiles on there face then that's what i want to do i am a caring loving person i love what i do. I had been giving a patient that was very angry and a very depressed patient when i met her she would not smile and barely eat it took me almost a week.i would come in every day and sit and talk to her curly her hair do her makeup paint her nails take her for walk and finally she started putting her guards down an started talking and smiling and eating and all it was that she was lonely and nobody really took the time really care and understand why she was like that .
