I believe I make a great caregiver because I genuinely care about people. I care about the level of care they receive, and I care about them being well taken care of. I believe each person has a right to be happy and taken care of, as a caregiver it is my job to help achieve that. I have always had a caregiver's heart and started volunteering at a hospice service while I was in high school. I then took that love I had for taking care of people and applied it to my education. I have received my CNA and I am working on obtaining my RN. What attracts me most to this line of work is the satisfaction of knowing you helped someone who needed you, and that you help make their life easier.
