I have worked as a Home Health Aid for almost 3 years and have loved every minute of it. From the beginning I felt like this was my calling and have taken great pride in providing the highest quality care to every patient I have had. I know that being a caregiver is what I am meant to do and feel fortunate and blessed to have found a passion that so many people go their whole lives in search of. I have enjoyed finding ways to bring the most comfort to my patients from taking them on walks around their neighborhood, to providing music therapy in their homes and playing the patients most favorite music. I feel that families with a sick member desperately need time for themselves as caregivers, and I love providing that much needed respite care.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
