I first became a Certified Nursing Assistant because I wanted to learn more about health care. I then obtained a Bachelors degree in Athletic Training to also further my knowledge in health care. I ultimately want to be a Caregiver because I love the one on one care I can provide to my patient. Also working in a nursing home you don't have much time for one on ones with patients because you are always helping someone else and your job is never done. However, working as a Caregiver you can spend more time and able to learn more about your patient. That's my favorite part is building relationships through taking care of patients and also having meaningful conversations with them. A personal achievement I'm very proud of is being the first in my family to graduate from college. A little fun fact about me is I have played soccer since I was five. It has always been a passion of mine and I was even fortunate to play in college.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
