    I consider myself to be a very loving person. I became a caregiver when my father started experiencing memory loss which unfortunately lead to Dementia. I'm very understanding of what family's experience when someone you love get this illness. I hope to care for the elderly for a long time and also bring some relief to the family that their love ones are in good hands.

    The things that I feel that makes me a great caregiver is the fact that I am very passionate and understanding when it comes to to having someone you can trust with your loved one. I decided to be a caregiver because I had a baby sister who was very ill and it felt great to care for someone. I was glad in being able to take some pressure off my mom and being able to help make my sister more comfortable in anyway possible. When she passed I made a promise to get in the medical field to try to make a difference and really care about patients and their families do everything possible to ensure that they're well taken care of. I am proud that I was able to take courses and being in the top ranking of my class for medical assistant position. This allowed me to experience working in two different clinics at Trinity Hospital
