Hi, what makes me a great caregiver is that I'm very dedicated to caring for seniors , very reliable and am able to follow through task . Whatever is needed I will get the job done going above and beyond because I have a passion for taking care of seniors and assisting them with their ADL's in everyday living. When I was younger I took care of my grandfather when he couldn't do certain things on his own anymore I enjoyed assisting him with whatever he needed done so this is the reason why I am attracted to being a caregiver. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver are being able to help the elderly that cannot do most things by themselves and also still giving them their independence if they still can do with a little assistance I standby for precaution to prevent falls or them hurting themselves while trying to be independent. It makes me happy to see them smile everyday knowing they have a great caregiver by their sides. My personal achievement that I'm proud of is that I been caring for the elderly for over 18 years and I soon would love to get in nursing school for RN so I can be a hospice nurse.
