    I became a care giver because i like to help people. I love seeing people feel loved and be confident. i love being able to hear stories and help clients still live to their fullest independence level. I am looking to go into the healthcare field as an administrator and I believe that care giving is a great way to understand the needs of the patient that I can use in the future. I also love the flexibility of hours.
