I love the fact that I can help people maintain their independence, and assist them with the activities of daily living. 3. Although I have many, the main achievement that I'm proud of is getting into the medical field. I've always enjoyed helping other people. 4. I am a hard worker, compassionate, team player and detailed oriented. I have been in the medical field for fifteen years and most of my experience has been dealing with patients. I truly enjoy working with people.With my last client I did such a exceptional job that my client family member call and spoke highly to my boss about me.
