Hi I'm Mary! I have been a nursing assistant (caregiver) at the hospital ORMC for 2 and a half years now. I started as a caregiver because I will be starting nursing school this year and I wanted experience in health care before starting. My favorite part about my job is that I get to help people feel safe, comfortable, and happy! I am proud of how far I have come along as a caregiver because I get a lot of compliments from all of my patients and managers about how great my care is. This makes me so happy because it is reassurance that I am awesome at what I do. I am also certified in basic life support and first aid.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
