I became a caregiver because I enjoyed helping individuals remain as independent as possibly by assisting them with their day to day needs. I understand how hard it is for someone to lose all or part of their independence as I have seen this with my own parents and I use my strengths to use their abilities and strengths to make life as pleasing as possible. I am proud to have learned to be patience with others and to put their needs and concerns first. I enjoy working with people and being gratified that my services was well appreciated. I do not take like for granted and I recognize that someday I too will reach a point where I will need assistance. I believe you have to have respect for humankind and build on the strengths of the individual.
