I like being a caregiver so as to provide comfort, help and companionship for elderly in their daily chores or routine. Seniors need patience, love and understanding much like we are taking care of our own parents. I am of Filipino descent and as such it is imbibe in our culture for the love and respect of the elderly, so much more if they are relatives. It is in our second nature to care for our parents, uncles/aunts, grandparents. I am now 60 yrs old, male and i think i can still serve our community thru caregiving job. However, i am only available on weekends as i take care of my grandkids during weekdays. I can drive and have a valid license.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
