I was a behavioral training specialist and professional caregiver for 7 years. I know how important is being very exact or highly accurate in performing this job, and always respect the elderly, try to understand their needs to help them, being aware of their reactions and understanding why they react as they do. I remember my grandmother during the time when she became helpless and I saw how thankful and happy she was when we surrounded her with love and care. I try to be a person with a heart for working with seniors, providing personal assistance, medical attention, emotional support, developing constructive and cooperative working relationships with others.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
