PERSONAL CAREGIVER
Summary

I am 30 years old, I have been certified since December 2011 I've only worked with elderly patients in either nursing home or as a caregiver in their home. I take my job very serious and I know that my job is very high demanding, I will be on time for work each scheduled shift, and attendance is very important as well. I don't call in for work unless I am contagious and the doctor tells me I'm not able to work then I'll give as much notice as possible if that was to happen and I rarely get sick. I enjoy working with elderly they have a soft spot in my heart and I can interact with them a lot better than I can others, I enjoy being a part of their life, I treat them the same way I'd want my family member to be treated or myself.
