What makes me a great caregiver is that I'm reliable, flexible, and compassion. I love what I do so without these 3 traits I wouldn't be the great caregiver that I am today. What attracted me to being a caregiver was watching my mom take care of my grandmother. That inspired me to join this field because of the passion my mom had to get up every day to take care of someone she loved. What I enjoy the most is being able to help people who need the help or someone who just want a companion because sometimes us caregivers is the only people that they see and they be happy with that. My personal achievement that I am proud of is learning and dealing with all these different type of diseases that people get as we get older.
