Being a Caregiver is not an easy job but it is the most rewarding and I have found that because I am generally a calm person it helps the residents I work with , I love to see them smile whether it's me being silly or helping them with things that have become harder for them to do such as Walking or Helping them into bed or getting ready for the day. From the time I was a little girl I saw my mom work in this profession and as I got older trying to figure out what my purpose was in life , I quickly found that caring for people in need is where I found most of my compassion. An achievement I'm most proud of is finishing my CNA program and passing clinicals. It was tough and but it was a challenge that I put my heart and soul into.
