I started my career as a caregiver 12 years ago. I started off with direct care specialists with just one client who had Alzheimer Disease. During my days with her, I was able to see life through her eyes and my passion for caregiving increased. Knowing that I'm helping others to live and feel normal part of society, gives me so much peace and joy! Being a caregiver have increased my patience not only for my clients but for all human regardless of their background. Caregiver is not just a job but I truly love and care for my clients. Even now my clients are a huge part of me and when I don't see them for couple of days, I miss them!
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
