A caregiver must be willing to spend a lot of time caring for a person with a disability. They must be very caring and have plenty of patience. Many disabled individuals' handicaps are as a result of accidents, injuries, or diseases causing a lasting disability. A disabled person's needs go deeper than just their physical inabilities. The caregiver must realize and show sensitivity to all of these needs. Caring for people with disabilities requires some training and knowledge about the specific disability.
