I became a caregiver when my grandma was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. I took care of her and went to school and got my cna. I love being a caregiver because I love helping others and seeing how they progress each and every day. I'm proud of my helping take care of other my father also passed away with lung cancer and I wouldn't have it any other way that I was able to take care of them. I'm a very family oriented person, caring, and just would love to keep continuing on with my education and hopefully have a family someday of my own.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
