I became a caregiver because I love working with elderly people. I learn so much from them beacause they have the experience and knowledge I still don't have. What I like the most about being a caregiver is that I get to help the people the most need it. A personal achievement that I am proud of is that I have more patience than before. To me that was one of the parts of my life that needed improvement. I consider my self a very friendly person I have never gotten into arguments with people for any reason. I have self-discipline, self-respect and respect for everyone.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
