1. I originally became a caregiver to take care of my grandmother because she was sick and no one could really help her. 2. I enjoy watching my patients face light up from small talk to helping them meet their daily/weekly goals, it melts my heart. 3. I completed school as a patient care technician even though my grandmother passed away in the middle of my semester. I continue to be a caregiver because I know she would be proud. 4. I am 26years old and a army veteran who really enjoys helping others. I love to see the smiles on patients faces, it makes me feel appreciated.
