In most cases I think that for a person to be a great caregiver is having the a heart to feel compassion for others. To know that you gave it your all to bring happiness to someone else. Now, In all honesty what attracted me to be a caregiver, was the need to help my family. But not just that.. I became my brothers caregiver. You can probably say I was used to carrying for them. It always brought me joy not because I was getting payed but because I loved to see a smile on them. One of proudest achievements is that I made a decision on studying CNA and being able to go to a nursing home working along side as a student and helping out and learning more. I am Not Certified yet but I'm great full to had been able to help out the residents.
