Being a great caregiver is easy when you actually care. I believe in putting myself in someone else's shoes, being respectful, kind, providing safety in all situations. I have worked for hospice since 2011. Communication within the team is one of my great strengths; my largest attribute able to flex around many different cultures, faiths, family dynamics as well as various diagnosis. Before becoming a home health aide, I had cared for a family memeber who had alzheimers with agitation until they passed. I am currently attending nursing school full time to ultimately become an Licensed Vocational Nurse. Having the one on one time of home care is why I want to be a part of home health. Having the time to connect with your patients and provide quality care is what appeals to me about being a caregiver.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
