What makes you a good caregiver?

“ Assisting patients is always something that I look forward to, I do not only help them with their needs but I also keep them company when they are lonely and keep them happy . ”

In what skills area do you feel most qualified to be a caregiver?
”I am more experienced in bath & bed assistance ,peg tube feeding, assessing basic vital signs, dementia care ,catheter care ,colostomy care, Alzheimer’s care and wound monitoring,”

What makes you most excited about working with seniors?

“I learn a lot from them. Elderly people are full of wisdom. It's so amazing how much knowledge they have (and poor out to others). I love the moments I get to spend with the patient and just share about life.”

What was the best day at work you’ve ever had and what made it so good?

”My best day was when I was looking after a patient who refused to eat, after many attempts and being patient with him, he started being cooperative and the nurse was very impressed.”
