I absolutely loved working with my residents and getting to know them, especially once they started getting used to me being around them I felt truly loved and appreciated them. The staff was supportive and fun to be around, and I genuinely loved coming in to work every day.
What I wish was different
The expectations in the beginning were a bit confusing, so if that could have been more explicit I would have been able to get the ball rolling a little bit faster, but other than that, no major complaints!
Advice
Don't be afraid to jump right in and put yourself out there. This experience was something brand new for me and somewhat out of my comfort zone, but once I got over that hump of not knowing and hesitating, I fell right into place and felt at home for the rest of the experience.
