Finding great care is all about the caregiver's personality and how that personality fits with the patient and the members of their family. The process is just as simple and just as complicated as that. I have been a caregiver for five years and still love what I do. I love providing home caregiver services to those who would otherwise be unable to remain at home. A smile on a client's face is overwhelming and makes me feel like I have done my job correctly. I have always enjoyed helping people. I like helping elderly people because I have worked with elderly family members as a private caregiver. I love what I do and have enjoyed helping every client with whom I have worked. I am proud of both the fact that I am fulfilling my goals and the way that I adjust and mingle instead of feeling sad when nobody is including me.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
