Being that I was raised by my grandparents I have a connection with the elderly. I've always had the desire to care for people and their well-being. I started doing CNA work classes before I was even out of high school at the age of 17 and was working with the Catholic nuns at McAuley Manor. I worked in a several nursing home settings and then moved onto dental care assistant even working for a pediatric office at one point. I've worked with animals and in the hospitality settings all which are dealing with the public and people's well beings. Caregiving it's been a big staple in my life.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
