I became a caregiver becouse I have a love for people and if I am able to help someone that cant help themself that give me feel good. The thing I like about caregiving is meeting new people and helping. I would not say it is a achievement but maybe a gift, and that would be the ability to care and love others. I have three years of experience in care giving. Ability to lift, push or pull 25 pounds Ability to bend, twist, stoop, kneel, and reach Ability to withstand exposure to dust, mold, mildew and cleaning solutions Ability to treat and care for clients and their property with dignity and respect Ability to adapt to various living environments and locations Ability to communicate with clients in a friendly and congenial manner
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
