I am interested in primary care in rural areas, partly because of my own experience living in this area. Besides working as a pt care tech, I've been volunteering for hospice for a long time and that is part of the reason as well (I assume geriatrics fall under primary care). It may sound cheesy but I know I love working with patients and building a continuing relationship with them... despite how frustrating it can be sometimes, trying to convince stubborn people.
