I became a Caregiver, because I want to give back to my community. I feel that being a Caregiver is a way to give back. I realized I wanted to take this path 5 years ago when I was looking over my grandparents. What I like about being a Caregiver is that I am giving back to people. I am proud of the opportunities I have gotten with my grandparents. Without them I would not have realized how much I love to do this. I completed my CNA course 3 years ago. I have been working as a caregiver for about 4 years. I am currently in nursing school. Hoping to become a nurse by the end of the year.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
