I am a great team member and natural leader. Me along with many others would say I am a hard worker and take my work serious. I love working with people creating a bond and friendship with someone I am caring for. What attracted me to being a caregiver was working for the first time in a Nursing facility as a support member. I was looking for a job and was interested in the medical field so I took my first job in that field starting at the facility. I was only allowed to help feed and talk to the patients but I realized I loved helping and wanted to be able to do as much as I can to help them so that encouraged me to get further qualified and become a CNA. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the feeling that I get seeing someone happier or feel more comfort because of something I did for them weather it was small or big, knowing that I helped them with something truly makes me happy. Along with the great conversations I have with many of the residents, I can learn something new or interesting about them everyday and become someone they trust.
