I became a "care giver" actually by chance. After graduation from college, I did not immediately have employment, and I met the care needs of elderly family members. I realized that, in fact, I enjoyed it, and decided to further the art of "giving care." Working with clients gives me an amazing sense of satisfaction. Each case is individualized, and each case requires a degree of critical thinking. I feel confident that I am able to "think critically" and to work with other members of the care team to personalize the treatment plan. My graduating from college is a personal achievement for which I am proud. And, that fact does lend some description to myself. I am also a volunteer for the Alzheimer's Association, and I am an avid sports fan and gardener.
