I had been a client care worker for 16 years I'm 37 years old and I started this job so young because I have taken care of my grandparents since I was 15 years old it is very important to me to make them feel comfortable and happy in their elder age as I can .its not fun bathing changing diapers helping transfer into wheelchair helping transfer into bed helping to dress but what really is not fun is this man and this woman who use to be able to do everything for their self who raised children who had jobs and now they have to have someone change their diaper and dress them I know they are embarrassed and they might feel bad so is very important to make them feel loved appreciate and most importantly not a burden I hope that other people understand that we all will get old and you would hope that the person that has to take care of you will respect you and treat you with dignity and not make you feel like a burden I love helping people I love people feeling important and respected my personal achievement is that for the last 11 years I work the night shift but every family of the patients that I took care of knew me by name even though they never seen my face they knew that I took care of their loved ones like they were my own and that makes me feel good to know that family member trust me with their loved one and that I stand out enough to be recognized even though they never personally met me and I think that is a wonderful achievement in this field the most important
