I feel what makes me a great caregiver is my patience along with being understanding and sympathetic for a persons situation. I became I caregiver to help people and allow them to live a regular life, such is what we all deserve. My favorite part about caregiving has to be seeing my patients happy, as cheesy as it might sound I truly do love seeing my patients happy and know that I was apart of that is just so fulfilling. My proudest moment was caregiving for my Grandfather and I'm happy I was able to help him live a normal life and allow him the opportunity to do so much more than he'd be able to on his own.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
