Every new client is a new experience and a new learning for me. Educating myself on everything there is to know about my client, their medical condition, medication, their behavior, so that I can tailor myself to give the best care that I can give to them. I’ve given them their happiness, health and a sense of wellbeing. Reduced their feelings of loneliness, isolation. I’ve built up goodwill and trust, so that my clients can get back their dignity, pride which increases their sense and satisfaction of their life. My job is, not only to care for my client but to take the worries and responsibility off the shoulders of the families.
