What attracted me to being a caregiver is that I love taking care of people. I used to be the caregivers for my grandparents up until my grandfather that passed away in 2018. I got my license because I wanted to be more equipped to help. What I love most about Caregiving is the one on one care you are able to give to someone who needs it. Some traits I feel that help me are that I consider myself a very loving and caring person so I feel I am able to give better care because of it. I am the type of person to be who trys to be fully informed about the patient in my care. I like to be thorough so that I am able to assist the patient or person at hand to the fullest according to my capacity and above, in regards to needing hospital or doctor assistance. I am proud of the person I have developed into because of being a caregiver.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
