I became a caregiver because it was a convenient option at the time. After being a caregiver for a few weeks, I realized that I was making a significant difference in the life of my client. I enjoyed being able to impact the life of my clients in a positive way. Working in this field has taught me to be patient, kind and understanding to everyone. I have learnt to be more compassionate and sensitive towards others and their situations. I have worked as a caregiver for over 7 years. I am a trained Home Health Aide/ Personal Care Aide.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
