I have goood communication skills. My objective is to contribute towards the wellbeing of my clients in a good team environment, and to ensure joy and happiness to the families under my care. I love being around the elderly people and giving them the care they deserve as they were once the ones that cared and built the community that I live in and am enjoying it freedom. Knowing I shell one day be in that position and would one day need the same help. I love seeking advice from them as they have been through things that I haven't. I feel horned when I have been able to help in a positive way to being joy or peace in someone's life.
