I became a caregiver in 2006 in Meridian MS. I worked at the State Hospital Group Homes dealing with the Mental Ill. There I found a passion taking care of individuals who need my assistant and loving support. I now work with the Disable and Special Needs here in South Carolina. Myself have been disable before for 7 years with seizures. Now I am seizures free. I find it amazing that becoming a CAREGIVER is very career opportunity. Helping different people to cope with their disabilities or just someone who just like to sit down and talk.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
