Hello back in 1997 I decided that I wanted to work with the elderly and disabled helping them maintain their independance I knew there were a lot of seniors and disabled people who just needed maybe a little extra help and encouragement to maintain their independence I consider myself to be a very compassionate person and am able to express empathy towards others and I am a great listener I never want my clients to feel they can't maintain. Their lives it's my job as a caregiver to make them feel secure and encouraged I want them to be able to still do the things they used to but am there to offer assistance when needed I believe a lot of seniors get discouraged when they have to have someone assist them with things they used to do on their own I believe with the right encouragement and a stable environment they can lead happier lives being able to be at home is a joy having a one on one interaction with a client and their family were as being in a facility they dont get the one on one attention so i consider myself lucky to be a caregiver not only do i get to meet lots of people and hear about their lives i get to help them also so thats why i am proud to be a caregiver
