I think what makes me a great caregiver is the fact that I care a lot about people, especially the elderly who can't manage to do things a lone. I love to help when someone is in need of help. I became a caregiver because a lot of the times that I'm out shopping or doing things I always see mature adults who ask for help in certain things and I never have a problem with helping them because it's he I am as a person I am very kind hearted and love to see other people be happy and smile. What I love about my job is that I get to see how happy and appreciative they get when you stick around and joke around with them, and do silly things and laugh about silly things and see that their health is ok it makes me feel really supportive with them and the things they go through in life. The main thing that I have achieved and am proud of is being able to have their trust, love and support as well.
