My name is Michelle Venegas. I'm currently a student at CSULA and studying communication disorders. I work for a company called CAPC in whittier, CA. I work with individuals that have disabilities. I've always enjoyed helping others and help empower others that want the help. It's not just something I do for fun, it's a passion that i look forward to doing my whole life.

I love being a cargiver cause I love working with people. I took care of my grandmom an uncle an loved it. I like the fact thaf I help make prople happy an with there care. I am proud that I can change an save a life. I love working with older people helping them out and making sure there needs are ment.

Ive been a caregiver for 10 years. I love helping people. It began with my grandmother getting sick and I never wanted her to be alone so I was there with her, to her last breath. I am extremely proud of myself that ive been doing this for so long. Its a satisfying job to have. To know that you are helping someone achieve their everyday task is rewarding. Everybody needs somebody. Ive came across all kinds of clients in my ten years of work. From Parkinson's to paraplegic clients. Both young and old. And in each situation I have grown and learned from it. Im excieted to meet new people, new challenges and give a hand where it is needed.

Having a mother of age 74 with medical conditions and dedicating more time to her I have a great and personal interest in help others.

I have been a caregiver for several years because I enjoy taking care of the elderly because they give me more than I give them. I'm always on time and am able to help people that really need my services. Over the years I met so many wonderful people. I worked in the business field for a long time but it wasn't fullfilling. I have 4 children, 10 grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren. I don't get to see them as often as I would like to. I am very health for my age. Thank God! Would like to care for you.

I like helping people it's just something about that makes me feel good knowing I made a difference in someone life

I feel like I am a great caregiver because I feel like I can help people that feel like they cant help themselves. I make them feel like they are special and important people. I became a caregiver to change the outlook on people lifes that feel like they have nothing to live for. Just to see someone smile after knowing what they have been through are going through is all that matters to me. And that is my accomplishment.

I am very personal with my client I like to know everything about there medical problems so if anyone ask me I could tell them and I like to know there family on a personal note so they know that their family member is taken care of right

I became a caregiver back in 1995 when my oldest brother and his wife were both diagnose with aids. I took care of them both until they passed on. from then on I have been either taking care of the elderly or doing childcare. I love taking good care of the elderly making sure they are safe in eating good nutritious meals seeing that they get to their appointment on time just too offered sincere and companionship.im most proud of the mother and grandmother have become I have four children of my own but I have help raise 11 children and 7 of them has gone off to collage. that is my greatest achievement .
