I am currently a nursing student to become an LVN and I wish to finish school for RN in the future as well. Before living in California I used to work with a facility who helped diabetic patients in Oklahoma. I've always wanted to do nursing to help people, so when I moved to California I chose to work in caregiving to be more hands on in helping. In my current nursing program we have clinicals, where we interact and help patients so I'm always helping people out which is amazing. Nothing makes me happier than to hear a patient say I've made their day a little better.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
