I became a caregiver to help elderly people who aren't able to do certain things by themselves. These elderly people require some assistance, and I decided to help them out. I like being a caregiver a lot because I like to help the clients, participate in activities with the clients, and personal care. Also, I enjoy grocery shopping for them, doing light house keeping, keep them company, and etc. A personal achievement that I am proud of is receiving my high school diploma, and getting into the nursing program at Quincy College. Well to start off, I am an easy going person, and I have great communication with people. In addition, I am friendly, organized, respectful, and trustworthy individual.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
