I consider myself to be a great caregiver because I am loving, caring, trustworthy, reliable and most importantly I am very empathetic. I treat my patients in a way I would want to be treated. I knew I wanted to be a caregiver once my grandmother needed one of her own. Although I looked after her a lot she wouldn't let me do certain things because I was t properly trained at the time. She has since passed away. I feel a since of purpose when helping others in need so I decided to take a Cna course and become certified. My proudest moment is when I took my state test and became a licensed nursing assistant.
