Caregiving is so rewarding....Just a mere. "Thank you for doing this for me, for helping me!" from all your patients makes you feel so good=:) Caregiver job is hard work and I appreciate all the Caregivers.

What makes me a great Caregiver is that I am a caring, empathetic and compassionate person who takes great care of my patients. I see each individual as an an opportunity to help someone. I have always been a caring person, who would take care of others no matter who. I've never been one to see others who are having a hard time or are in need of assistance and not try to help in some way. My friends say it's because I have a soft, caring heart.
