I decided to become a caregiver because as a young child growing up into adulthood, I have always taken a special interest in the health and well-being of those around me. The best part of being a caregiver is the feeling of satisfaction at the end of the day knowing that my patients are content with my work. One personal achievement that I am proud of is going back to school to earn an associate degree in Respiratory Therapy. I would describe myself as having a very outgoing and upbeat personality. I am also respectful, responsible, and well rounded in working with a range of backgrounds and personality types.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
