I would say what makes me a great caregiver is my personality. I love to help those in need, and those who are at vulnerable times. I have a GREAT bedside manner, and like to make my patients smile. I got into the medical field from my experience as a medic in the army. I loved the work, and I feel there's not a better job than to be able to help those in need. What I enjoy most about being a nurse is, being able to see the progress that patients make. I love to be out in public and see patients in a store doing so much better. All my work as a nurse has made me proud because of the attitude I take to work everyday. I feel like if you treat every patient you come into contact with as family. You won't ever have any issues doing your job.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
