I'm a very happy caregiver. I've been told I have a smile that can brighten up any room. I love what I do and very compassionate about my work. I enjoy just about everything there is to love about a caregiver. The fact that just my presence and my company is good enough for someone is enough for me. And I love the positive feedback from my patients. I remember I had a case where my client had a really bed sore on his bottom and the heel of his foot. He was very down about and thought it would be aegis le before he walked again because of the pain. So every morning I encouraged him to walk around his bedroom, within a few weeks he was walking up the steps making his own breakfast. Another client of mine was bed bound from MS, she can be hoyer lift but decided to stay in bed. After working with her for almost a year around the 6 month mark I was able to get her out of bed into her mobile chair, only for a few minutes but I was happy enough that I was able to encourage her to get out of bed. I just love to see people happy. And the world we live in I live being positive and making peoples' days. So that's why I LOVE my job.
