My experience is many years of caring for my mother, who suffered from rheumatoid arthritis, and believes in many other ailments that resulted during the progressive disease of this terrible disease. Last year I decided to hire myself to take care of those in need, and at that time I got a caring certificate, I had some difficulties because there was a lot of material to pass, but I passed it all because the practice I had helped me a lot. As a comunity care Worker, I had the honor of meeting many wonderful people with whom I established a bond with ease, each person was special to me, with each one I worked differently, I could read between the lines, get to know them, learn as much as possible about what they like, if they would like this care was exercised. With each person I was looking for a different way of communication, if it was difficult. I gave each person such care as if they were a member of my family.
