I became a caregiver because ever since I can remember that is exactly what I wanted to do. I come from a family of caregivers. I served in the United States Army as a combat medic as well. I like being able to see the smiles of people that I can give help to. I am personally proud of the fact that I have passed the state board exam, and that I have thrown caution to the wind in pursuing my education as a nurse. I am a single parent and have quit a job in the manufacturing industry to pursue my dream of being a nurse. I want to be able to provide for my daughter, and for her to see that it does not matter how old you are, you can always achieve your dreams.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
