What makes me a great caregiver is that I'm not in it just for the pay, my heart is involved with every resident I come into contact with whether they're sour or sweet, eventually they always fall in love just as much as I do. What made me want to become a caregiver was my mom. I've watched her in the field of nursing for about 15 years. She would come home super sad or super happy about whatever her patient was going through at the time and honestly the drive and the amount of affection she had for her patients gave me the want to be just like her. She's so good at what she does and I strive to be just as good as her one day, I definitely learned from the greatest. My favorite thing about this job is the people and the knowledge that you gain from them and the stories that they tell. One thing that I'm proud of is my productivity this year 2019. I know I'll go far in life if I continue to thrive the way I did this year.
