My personal traits that make me a great caregiver is that I am Empathetic, Patient, and one of my main concerns is Patient safety at all times. I also understand that the most important part of communication with the client is listening. By the time I had exited high I had known that I wanted to be in the Medical field helping people. my first taste of being a caregiver of sorts is when I became a X-ray specialist in the United States Air Force. After my Honorable discharge from the military, I became a license CNA in multiple states and A license LVN in the state of California. My nursing experience covers Home health, Hospital work, Psychiatric Hospital Care, Hospice Care, Adolescence Home Health, Psychiatric Care Home, Long Term Care and Convalescent Hospitals. I enjoy the interaction with clients that I work with and the satisfaction of seeing them smile. I am most proud of the fact that the clients and families I have worked with throughout the years have appreciated the time and the attention to detail while taking care of their family members.
