I wanted to become a caregiver because I have a passion for making people feel good about themselves while taking care of them. I am in technical school and going to be a CNA by December 2014. One thing I learned about this job was it's not just a job,you build great relationships with the people you care for and it's a wonderful thing. I am proud of all the skills I passed at technical school. Bathing a resident, transferring, feeding ect. Now I can move on to clinical a in the fall and work with residents at Delmar Gardens. Last but not least the one thing you should know about me is I'm very patient with people and there needs,I like to make people see the world differently and make them feel great about themselves.
