I am a great caregiver because it is my natural born passion. I became a caregiver on behalf of my granny. My granny who was the rock of my family, provided for her 10 children, all 19 of her grandchildren and she had the opportunity to care for 8 of her great grandchildren as well. Caring for others is a learned behavior and I do it very well. As I became of age, my granny became ill. Being a loving and caring family, we care for mama (what we all called her) at home until her final day. The health team that came out to care for mama did an amazing job. I was intrigued by their skills, the medical equipment, and their scrubs. Right then and there I was sold on my career path. My personal achievement is to complete my education no matter what obstacles may appear.
