I am a great caregiver because I am and have been a caring and giving person all my life. I get joy from helping others, it's a natural thing for me. I became a caregiver because I've always enjoyed the elderly, but once my mother had become sick, I wanted to know the proper ways of caring for her. I realized this was my true calling in life. Caregiving is my purpose. I enjoying helping and showing the patient there is always someone who cares. A personal achievement for me was relocating to Virginia and getting my CNA certification, while waiting to test for the state board.
