I am a caregiver for almost 16 years now, and I started working in a residential care facility with several clients with different kinds of level of care each and every one needs.. As time passes by, I learned the passion of helping elderly people and feel the importance of being a help to them who cannot even do and managed the usual day to day living activities. Yes, the pay is commensurate to the work and services rendered but also I love this kind of job because its too fulfilling and challenging to me when people are dependent on you. With this kind of work, I always give my best to my client with priority on his/her comfort and safety.
