1. I'm compassion, I'm caring, I have empathy for people. I'm patient, reliable, adaptable and a good communicator. 2. What attracted me to being a caregiver is my dad. He has Alzheimers and since 2021 my mom and my sisters are his Caregivers at home. He's in Home Healthcare. The way other Caregivers treated him made me cry because if it wasn't for them caring for my dad the way they do we would be lost. They really treat him good and they are so kind and caring towards him. I want to do that for other people that need caregiver support. 3. I enjoy most about being a caregiver is to see the smiles on the patient's face light up when you're nice to them. When you say a kind word and make them feel important. 4. A personal achievement of mine is becoming a National Veteran Caregiver. My dad is a Vietnam Veteran and I received my Certification in the National Veteran Caregiver Training Program.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
