I started part time as a caregiver on weekends when my son was in College. I used to do payroll for a Home Health Care and do other multi tasking job as requested by my boss. I stopped working for a year and went back to work as a full time caregiver. When my mom had thyroid cancer, I took care of her. I love my work because I am able to help the elderly and get a salary. I am passionate with my clients and treat them as my own. I work for them for a long time not unless they die or moved to another state. I find this job very fullfilling.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
