I am a senior nursing student expected to graduate in December, 2020. I am a member of Sigma Theta Thau, an international nursing honors society, which I am proud to say. I have three years of employment experience in a healthcare setting, and over 200 hours of patient care experience from clinical learning. I am interested in being a home health caregiver because I believe it will be a great experience that I can carry on to my nursing career after graduation. I have wanted to be a nurse since childhood, and I love caring for others. There is nothing better than knowing that you made a positive influence in someone's life. My favorite quote regarding patient care is "They may not remember your name but they will never forget the way you made them feel".
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
