About Leigh

What makes me be a great caregiver is I'm compassionate, I truly care about the care that the patient needs. What attracted me to being a caregiver was when I took care of a qualdapelgic, my heart went out for the level of care needed and I wanted to make sure I made a difference in his life. That's when I knew this was my calling. What do I enjoy most as a caregiver?, I like the one on one interaction. My personal achievement as a caregiver is to put a smile on a patient and doing the little things that they need to have a better day.

I think a great caregiver is some one who is compassionate and caring and love what they do. I got into the nursing field because I took care of my Grandmother until she pasted. I loved it so much I began to research it. I enjoy the companionship of the elder and love talking about their childhood memories.
