What makes me a great caregiver is the passion i have to care for people especially the old, so that they won't feel neglected and abandoned. I became a caregiver because since my late grandmother was sick and was taken to the hospital, her needs were not met to accordingly and each time she needed a nurse attention, they will always take long to come attend to her, to the point where she needed oxygen I rushed to call for the nurse but she took all her time to come and i washed my grandmother gasp for air and finally died. Since that day i said to myself, I'm going to be a nurse in future so that I can come to those in need and save life. I am proud of myself because of how far i have gone to achieve my dreams as to become a nurse even though, I am still taking my prerequisites before getting into the main nursing program, God being my helper.
