I became interested in caregiving due to my grandmother being deathly ill. I cared for her day and night until she passed away. Right after high school I pursued that same line of work for others. Though there are stressful times, as there is everywhere, it was so rewarding that at the end of trying to supply the patients every need, answer every call, do everything just how they expect it and when they expect it, I helped someone who didn't have anyone else to help them. Whether I failed or succeeded, I put my all in it and they were happy !! I will go the extra mile to make one feel loved and accepted.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
