I wanted to become a caregive because I love to help people. What i like most about being a caregiver is I would get to work with certain patients for a longer period of time as aposed to working in a hospital setting and once you meet the patient they are probably going to be discharged. Im proud that I have been with the same company for eight years and and every two years of my first six I moved up to a differnt position I learned alot of new things working sinai and now I think its time for me to get out and have a few new things under my belt and being in sinai I started to get close to certain patients and I thought it would be best if I had one on one cases because I really feel I can make a differnce in someones life and not to mention Im always being told that Im a nice caring person and I cater to the patients needs instead of just trying to be in and out
