I became a Care giver because my Domestic partner contacted a rare muscle disease called Polymyositus in 2001. He was bed-ridden for three years. Now he is able to walk with limited physical abilities. While taking care of him I also cared for my Parents 2004 to 2008. Dad had heart failure and kidney failure and diabeties. My Mom had Dementia and Diabeties. They both passed away in 2008. In 2011 my clients best friend called me to ask if I would care for his mother. She had Dementia and High Blood pressure. She was a Fiesty 97 years young woman. But I won her over with patience, kindness and lots of love. From 4/2011 to 4/2016. I love taking care of the elderly with compassion and kindness and patience. Have 15 years experience.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
