Is my belief that EMPATHY is the #1 core characteristic I have because I totally can put myself in the place of who I am caring for. I am a dependable and reliable caregiver. I have 2 years of experience on dementia patient. I am able to communicate effectively and make my client feel respected. I like to think of ways to ease tense moments when client is resistant to care. Responsibility and punctuality identify me. A plus is SPANISH as a native language. I want to make a difference in the lives of those in my care.

When my father was sick, I used to fill in as a caregiver. I learned from the nurse and other medical person. I took care of his medicine reminder, food serving, ambulation, and other work as instructed. That was the beginning of my career as a caregiver which I am proud of. I am a dependable and a reliable person.
