I love making peoples days no matter what it takes . What attracted me to caregiving would be my love for people , I just love having everyone in my presences . Its a breath of fresh air and it encourages me to keep going . What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the memories of the people who I take care of . Just listening them to them really motivates me and lets me know how much times have changed . Its really interesting to learn about everyones legacy . My personal achievement I am proud of is finishing school for Licensed Practical Nursing .

I enjoy working with people and I most enjoy jobs where I have one-on-one interaction with others. I enjoyed taking care of my elder family members and would like to help others in this way. I like older adults and feel I can get along well with a variety of elders. I like doing work that has the potential to make a difference in someone's life. I like doing a variety of tasks in a day. I don't ever say, "That's not my job" but instead like pitching in to do whatever is needed. I like making someone smile and doing little things to make a person's day better. I take pride in attending to detail.

I entered this field as a Active Treatment Specialist, well atleast that's what we were called in 2009. I had no idea how gratifying or challenging this job could be but I was up for the challenge. I remember in my job orientation how they gave all kinds of scenarios and asked after if we still wanted the job and I stayed throughout the process while many walked out. My first day on the job was tough. I had to get use to caring for someone other than myself and kids. A week in and I was a natural. I am mother so I possess a caring and nuturing spirit naturally. This was a piece of cake. The only thing I had to do was care for them as if it was me, my mom, my kids or family. One I put myself in their shoes, the question became.......If this were you, how would you want to be treated? I knew I would have wanted a person with humility who is caring, loving, compassionate, patient, kind, understanding,respectful and selfless. With this is mind I quickly moved up in the field from a Direct Support Professional to a Residential Coordinator(House Manager). Seeing the smiles on my clients faces or just to see them look p at me in appreciation for all that I do for them is gratifying that I could make them happy and whole with quality care and dignity while caring for them. The small things like grooming, feeding, community inclusion, vacations, careful lifting and transferring amongst other things simply make the people I serve happy. My love and passion for this work is truly one of my purposes in life. I am called to care..............
