The personality traits I feel help me be an excellent caregiver include being compassionate and kind to each individual and their family members. I want to be a welcome part of the family and bring an element of calm and confidence. I know this can be a stressful time for the person in care and the family so I want to assure them I am always focused on the health and well-being of my clients. I bring a creative and engaging style to my interactions and try to be responsive and flexible to the changing needs and feelings of Seniors in my care. Trust is very important to build so I am reliable, professional and sensitive to privacy issues. I enjoy being a caregiver because I can see the joy I can bring and the positive change I can make in a Senior's life. I am most proud of the deep bonds I form with my clients and their families and the truly positive feelings we share , I am also proud of the long term relationships that develop . With some clients and families, we are approaching three years working together. This is a very enriching life experience for both myself and my clients, who become like family.

I am pursuing a career with a reputable company where I can utilize my skills and gain further experience while enhancing the company's productivity and reputation. Even though I do not have a C.N.A certification as of yet, I truly believe I'm every bit as skilled. In addition I feel I have intangibles that set me apart from the average caregiver, hopefully I'll be able to use the skills I've learned over the years to help bring a higher level of service to the elderly.
