I love taking care of people of all sorts from young to old, especially the special needs population! I have been taking care of special needs people for about 28 plus years. I love what I do and I feel you should be able to find your job rewarding at the end of the day instead of just a job. I've tried other fields, but I always tend to come back to care giving population, so I'm thankful for all the experiences but this is where I belong.
