I became a caregiver because I enjoy taking care of others and their overall wellness. I find gratification when I am able to help someone be better each day than the last. I enjoy the feeling of accomplishment when I help others. I have the opportunity each day to make someone's day brighter, I have the ability each day to assist someone who cannot help themselves and I enjoy the fact that I am able to be not only a caregiver but a friend to a person in the time of need, and a support system for their families. I am proud of myself for overcoming obstacles with each day that passes. I am proud of my three children and 6 grandchildren that I have been a caregiver to, and I am proud of all the professional accolades and recommendations I have received from past employers. I am warm and caring, I take care of each person as if they were my own family members. I am invested in each person that I take care of and the care that I give, and I truly enjoy the work that I do.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
