I have been involved in in-home care giving for over 25 years because I like helping others. I believe that a person is happier and can be better cared for at home than anywhere else, and I have worked and trained to help make that happen. I have also been involved with clients in the hospital, a senior home or assisted living facility, in a rehabilitation hospital, and under the care of hospice. I like preparing nutritious meals, planning activities, and participating in good conversation. I am interested in sports, plays and movies, board games, jigsaw puzzles, and arts and crafts. I also am an avid reader. Though I really enjoy cooking, occasional dining out is also fun.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
