I became a caregiver because I love to help those who can and cannot do for themselves. I love being that positive person and uplifting the spirits of people. What I like most about being a caregiver is the fact that I always put a smile on my clients face. That let's me know that I am fulfilling my duties and they are satisfied with my services. The achievement I'm proud of is a few days ago I have this client who has dementia and he would never allow me to bath him or hardly get near him but I accomplished that. I bathed him got him dread in his best clothes and he was so happy with how he looked. I was so surprised that I ran to my supervisor and said look at him. She was also proud of me. Something you should know about me is I take pride in my work and I'm a hard worker. I put the safety and care of my clients first. They are my main priority.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
