I have been working as a caregiver since I was 16. For the last 6 years I have been the primary care provider for my husband who passed away in April from lung cancer. I enjoy helping improve the quality of life for my patients and making there lives easier and more enjoyable as well as helping them heal. I got into caregiver because of my mother and found that I enjoyed the opportunity to help others as well as the opportunity to help my patient and there families have a more enjoyable and rewarding life in spite of there illness.

dependable, compassionate, and trustworthy.I think patience and compassion are essential. This is a job that requires a lot of tolerance for challenging situations, and good communication and a positive attitude also go a long way. Additionally, you need endurance and physical ability to support patients with certain tasks
