I want to become a Caregiver because I am a natural. I have been working in the wrong line of work, sales. I worked with my Grandfather,94 years, 2002-2004 and I always thought ,I can do this type of work. He always enjoyed all the help, from bathing, shaving, dressing, managing medication and going to the Doctor's Office. I worked in a Christ Hospital( Jersey City, NJ) for five years and it was one of my most rewarding work ever,1982-1986. I would like to be a senior care giver, to provide personal care, to be treated like family and with compassion. To have someone to talk to and to care for your own well being. My personal achievements are my family, my kids (two are college graduates and one Is five years old and a great little girl. I have worked in many jobs in sales, and have many satisfied customers. I have a clean criminal record, do not smoke, or do drugs . I stay in good physical shape. My name is Carlos N. Soto-Santiago, I went to Rutgers College, New Brunswick, NJ.(1977-1981) . I was a Pre Medical , went to work first for the Jersey City Medical Center as a Physical Therapist Aide and then went to Christ Hospital, for four years (!982-1986). I was in charge of the medical supplies, the hydro-therapy equipment, the exercise equipment, set up and adjustment , the hot packs and the paraffin. I was in charge of transporting the patient from the hospital bed to the Therapy Department. the

I am a compassionate person with great sense of human. At first, it was a drive to find a job, but things change when I started to see people health condition and needs. Something that often break my spirit to know that other are finding it difficult to survive daily. I have this one question in my mind. What can I do to help my client feel better and to be happy with the service I provide. Today, it is a life fulfillment because I have learned give hope and put smiles on people faces. Life is not all about the salary but what we do to help others in need.
