What makes me a great caregiver is my love for people, my honesty, respectfulness, compassion,empathy, reliability and intelligence. What attracts me to being a caregiver was as a kid I always wanted to be a doctor to help people and I just didn't follow my dreams but in my family I was the one to care for the others when ill and never complained so they would tell me all the time I would be a great nurse. I did business but that's always about yourself and being the selfless person I am I just made the change which is so soul satisfying to me. I enjoy when I work and get all that appreciation from clients who would tell me I go above and beyond yet I still feel I could do more. To see smiles on their faces as they go to sleep at nights and wake up in the morning still happy brings me joy.
