Caregiving is something I love to do. I have the upmost patience and I enjoy what I do. Although my field of study is opposite of what I'm looking for, it has worked out with my school schedule and again I love to care for others. Something I am proud of and what occurred at my current employment was that one of my patients at my current job was not settling in well. His wife needed help, but at the same time it was a lot to his condition and she was not absolute about the transition. Due to the relationship I had formed with the 76 year old man, in a short period of time, his wife invited me to care for him privately at their home. Till this day I still care for him.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
