My personality trait is every day wherever I go throughout the day how can I help someone. My joy is helping people in anyway I can. If I cannot help them I will look for that help for them and try to bring a smile on their face also. My Expertise as a caregiver is to put a lot of care and thought into my work. To complete every task that is required of me I can assure you that I'm very committed to my work. I also, put a lot of care into it. What attracted me to become a caregiver as my mother became ill I had to leave my full-time job. I cared for my mother to my best ability until her passing. During this time I was able to become a caregiver to other individuals. Family members were satisfied with my service. Due to the fact that I cared for these individuals as I would my own mother. What do I enjoy of most of being a caregiver ? Every time I am done taking care of my individuals. It's a fulfillment within my soul. That this individual was being taken care of to the best of my ability. What is a personal achievement you are proud of? To be my mother's caregiver working side-by-side with the doctors sorting her medication daily. To control her illnesses such as her A1c for diabetes, weight, mental illness, asthma, and COPD. My mother was able to have a longer and healthier life until her passing.
