I became what I consider a caregiver because I love helping people in any way that I possibly can, and I love being a caregiver because I know I make a difference by providing care for those who need it, I currently work at a group home for those who suffer with Cerebral Palsy, and my greatest achievement is knowing that thanks to me my clients are safe and well nourished. I make a difference by the things I do such as bathing them, feeding them, walking them, doing active treatment with them, and by giving them meds. Accordingly. Ita been my dream to become a nurse, not really sure in what area yet but I know that caring for people like oI do makes me a better person and I feel really good about myself.
