I loved my residents! The relationships I built, the interactions I had, the experiences we had, and the memories I made.
What I wish was different
I wish we wouldn’t have had to live through a pandemic. I wish I wouldn’t have had to work so many long days (7:30a-8:30p). At times I worked multiple days in a row, causing me to be exhausted and taking a toll on my health.
Advice
It was incredible to be able to care for others. I learned so much about how those with different ability levels can impact you and those around them on a daily basis.
