My first caregiving job was for my own mother who required a feeding tube and who suffered from dementia and congestive heart failure. In the 5 years that I took care of my mother each year she got better as well as knowing who I was up till her transitioning. My experience with my mother prepared me for other clients that I would have such as Mr Bob and Mrs. Jessie who I currently take care of, they are like my own parents. I love what I do I love cooking, cleaning, and caring after those who need someone responsible with integrity around them at this point in their life.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
