Over the past year, I've provided one-on-one care to an older adult with cognitive and physical challenges, assisting with meals, medication, mobility, and daily routines. I focused on creating a safe, respectful, and engaging environment that supported his dignity and well-being. I also have lifelong experience with special needs through my nieces and nephews. Supporting them has given me deep empathy, patience, and the ability to adapt to a variety of developmental needs. These personal and professional experiences have shaped me into a compassionate, attentive caregiver who values inclusion, consistency, and individualized support.
