What make me a great caregiver is patience. My client often teased me of my name, patience. They always say my mother give me a name that fits me. Another, is respect. Coming from a African background and being the youngest at the the time, respect is a must give. So, being respectful to others has never been a new thing for me, but something I always carry in mind. What inspired me into being a caregiver was my aunt. My mother little sister who lost the ability to walk at the age of 5. When mom and grandmother will go farming, I'll stay home and helped my aunt in the best way I could. Doing so has enabled me into being a great caregiver. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the wisdom that come with it. I learned different things from clients that I work with. Making people happy and and satisfied with the work that I do has be an achievement for me.
