"I consider myself a very compassionate person, and that is why I got into this field. I feel it is important to treat others with dignity, respect, and kindness. Many residents in the care facilities I have worked in do not have visitors and feel lonely. I like to take the time to visit with the residents and get to know more about them personally. I also like to bring them gifts on their birthdays and have a little party during their activities to make them feel special."
