The personality traits I have as a caregiver are that I'm always willing to do what is best for the client and being understanding of what they are going through and what they need from me. I was attracted to being a caregiver mostly because I've been taking care of others for almost 4 years now and really enjoy it. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is being able to help any way that I can if that be with cares that they need help doing or just listening as many clients just like to have someone to talk with. A personal achievement I'm proud of is graduating from college with a certificate in healthcare and hopefully continuing to do something more in healthcare one day.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
