My personality traits that help me be a great caregiver are that I'm patient, flexible and have a great attitude. What attracted me to being a caregiver is that I love helping people. The thing I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is being able to help someone's loved one and put a smile on their face. My personal achievement that I'm proud of is being a CNA.
