I am a great caregiver because I am a caring person, passionate, patient, dedicated to the patient's health and well-being. I have excellent skills in communication, people respond to me in a positive way personally and professionally. Sometimes I volunteer in an assisted living facility, playing games like bingo, and take them outside to enjoy the fresh air and the beautiful surroundings. Sometimes I get a call from facility to fill-in when they are short staff. I assist patients to get ready in the morning with personal hygiene, preparation for breakfast, and assist patient with their daily activity living (DAL). I enjoy what I do, and I do what I enjoy.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
