I take my time along with striving to help the patient understand that I'm there to help them not push them and that they can reach goals for themselves with motivation. The enjoyment comes from seeing them improve day to day or try their hardest to know they can, but I also know there are days they just don't feel their best and with that you show compassion and help give them the support they require. I am most proud that I was able to take care of my own parents for the last 8 years and give them the best of me as they had giving the best of themselves all the days of our lives.
