I love and am passionate about this kind of job because I have been taking care of my grandparent since I was in high school until they passed away in 1990 and one in 1991. I continue to take care of my sick father from 1993 to 1995 then he passed away. Since I moved to the United States, this is the only type of job I've done. It brought me such a great memories of my beloved grandparents and also my dad because they were so dear to me and they still are when I looked at the face of the elderly. I always love to work and fulfill the needs of these people. I have cared for a couple of ALS patients, several dementia, hallucination, cancers, Alzheimer's, and other illness. I also have completed my training with a certificate on Care Giver and also complete a training for CNA. I do also have a CPR card. My family and I are also fully vaccinated.
