I have been a caregiver to a 12-year-old boy with cerebral palsey. I have also cared for a 30-year-old woman with traumatic brain injury. Both of these needed full care including feeding, bathing, and medication management . I have also lived with ( as a paid position) persons with developmental delays. Some qualities I possess that I feel make me a good caregiver for those with special needs are that I am very patient, kind, and believe strongly in dignified treatment.
