I enjoy older people. I have worked in Psych for over 16 year+ . I have worked geriatric psych, transportation at a nursing facility, i have done caregiving for home health agencies. and an assisted living. I love working with the elderly. I love to have conversations with them about their past lives and how things were in their younger years. I am proud of the work i do and have done.

I like the flexibility of being a caregiver and it's not a stagnant job. Everyday there's something new. It works with my schedule as well with returning back to school and the benefits of being useful to someone that truly appreciates it is rewarding within itself

Well I'm a college student, but I don't go back to school until July, I'm president of my sorority, and prior to covid I was a college cheerleader. I'm very excited to meet new people and do whatever I can to help give the best care possible.
