Being a caregiver has given me opportunities to learn about the elderly and grow friendships that I will forever cherish in my lifetime. I love helping people the best way I know how and I love treating all of my patients like my own family. I go about taking care of them like I would take care of my own parents. One of my proudest achievements to date has been overcoming health issues with my current employer. When I first started taking care of her, she showed major signs of depression, anxiety and mood swings but today, I feel like we are happy together and I think we owe that to our daily exercises and activities that promite happiness.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
