1. I "accidentally" became a Caregiver my junior year of high school. My grandmother's health started to fail her and my family didn't want to put her in a facility. I agreed to help out and learned to enjoy it. 2. I enjoy knowing that I'm helping a family with a loved one and that loved one by helping them remain in their home with direct care to that one individual. 3. The trust one gains from family and patient. 4. I'm a single mother of two. I was medically trained in the National Guard. I've been with my current employer for 17 years and I am very de- pendable.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
