I became a caregiver because it is in my blood. My grandmother was a CNA, my mother is a LPN and is in school for RN, and I am currently in school for my RN. I enjoy the satisfaction of bringing joy into my patient's lives. My mother had a great impact on my decision. She has affected so many lives and it makes me smile to see how many relatives of her patients speak so highly of her. When I am in clinicals I get a sense of fulfillment when I leave the patients in a better mood and in better health than when I found them. I also have a younger brother with Downs Syndrome, Pulmonary Hypertension, and behavioral problems that I help care for. I am a hard worker and would be a definite asset to any life that is blessed to be touched by mine.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
