I feel that I am a great caregiver because I try to connect with my clients on a personal level. I like to hear stories of theirs to help them remember things from the past. I also always put the needs and wants of my clients first. I became a caregiver because I always loved to take care of people. After having my daughter, the nurses and doctors were so welcoming and nurturing, which pushed me to go to nursing school. The main thing that I love about being a caregiver is that I can help people in need and give them the best care possible. I also love to interact with my clients and build a relationship personally as well as professionally. My most recent achievement that I am proud of is receiving my CNA Certificate from College of Dupage.
