I chose to become a caregiver because I am a compassionate person and I feel it is my duty to service others in need of my care. I love the sense of pride I feel when helping those in need and the smiles or gestures of kindness I receive when helping clients. My proudest moment thus far is being accepted into the professional sequence of Nursing this year at my university. A little about me, I'm a Nursing student at Chicago State University. I'm a junior working on my Bachelor of Science In Nursing. I have 2 years experience as a home health aide and plan to work as a home health nurse when I pass the NCLEX exam and receive licensure. I am a loving and caring person who enjoy helping others, as well as, the joy I feel as a human being in doing so.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
