What makes me a great caregiver is I genuinely care for my patients ... I take the time to care for them with the love I would my own ... What attracted me to being a caregiver is my experience working in nursing facilities ... also the fact that my father was a senior citizen and i couldn't care for him like I wanted to before he passed away because I was to young ... I enjoy it a lot because I feel the elderly needs companionship, someone to talk with when they are feeling alone ... a personal achievement I'm proud of is raising my children to be the best they can be and sending my son off to college with a full football scholarship
