I became a caregiver because the compassion and understanding I have for helping others. As a young girl I watched my grandmother take care of her mother and so on and so forth. I then took an interest in the love and devotion of caring for others myself. So I went to school and received my license to be a C.N.A. The most rewarding part of being a caregiver is watching my clients get well and return back to their normal activities of daily living. I am personally proud of my self for earning the reward as MVP of the year as a homecare aid back in 2005 and I furthered my education and earned my bachelors in health care administration.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
