I love making people smile as well as making them feel like heard. I'm a singer, so I like entertain and keep people in a good mood. I am very helpful and attentive to the needs of people around me. What attracted me to being a caregiver is the fact that some of the elderly don't have family and friends to spend the rest of their days with. Its the fact that I could put a smile on their face throughout the day for a few hours to make them feel like someone care. Even if the patient has family and friends. What i enjoy the most about caregiving is being able to help someone in need. And also the stories they have to tell. A personal achievement I am proud of is being able to get a car fully on my own. It took me a while to be able to and now I finally can. And that puts a smile on my face.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
