I'm a responsible person I always want to make sure my people are always okay, I want to make sure they eat their meals throughout the day, take their medication do some activities

I have been a caregiver for over 30 years. I have compassion for others I care about other people and there needs I love to help others and I do my best ALWAYS I go above and beyond that what makes me a great caregiver

After many years in the industrial field, I felt I needed to do my part to help others and what I was most passionate about was helping out the most helpless - children and elderly, alike. Eventually, I took on the role of (adult) caregiver, assisting two different aunts at two different times - both with dementia and Alzheimer's. I continued being employed in that role after each had passed away. Roughly ten to twelve years later, I cared for my own mother, who also suffered from Alzheimer,'s/dementia, up until the time of her passing as well. Although it has its challenges, caregiving can be personally rewarding and gratifying, knowing that you've made a difference in someone's life. (It did for me.) I know some day I might need assistance with my own daily activities, so I'm looking to sow now, that I might reap later.

I have enjoyed helping out with my family members and in-laws when it came to anything needed around the house. I would be proud to help other families during their times of need as well. I work well with others and enjoy doing the best that I can do.

What makes me a great caregiver is my patience, my kindness and the willingness to help others. The most important thing that attracts me to be a caregiver is being able to help the elderly by making a difference in their life. What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver would be giving companionship to the elderly. A personal achievement I could say I'm most proud of is my hard work and dedication I put into my work. It has taken me to great places and it doesn't go unnoticed.
