I became a caregiver because I love the elderly folk. I have been working in the medical field for ten years and it's an interest that I have. I have my Emergency Medical Service license in NYS and now have aquired my EMS license in NJ. The personal achievement that I am proud of is that I have attended college, work, and tend to my husband and three children. I can honestly say it has been a task, but well worth it. I'm very extroverted and love making people laugh. I will try my best at any task at hand because it is all that I have.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
