I am an easy going person and I enjoy conversations be it meaningful or trivial. I learn a lot about who are my clients by actively listening to their stories. This allows me to better engage with people in a different age group than myself. I remember this soap opera that use to play in the waiting room of the health clinic. It was about an old man living by himself and the only person he had in his life was his caretaker. They became great friends despite being from two different worlds and time. I always thought that would be cool if I had that kind of relation with someone. Out of all the things, what I like most about being a caretaker is the mutual respect.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
