Dependable, loving, reliable, humble, helpful, persistent, optimistic, trusting, fair, encouraging. What attracted me to being a caregiver is my great-grandmother. She became ill and could not move as she was used to. I begin helping her with her daily ADLs, feeding her, and taking her to Dr. appointments. It encouraged me to do the same for others like her that cold not help themselves. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is helping other that cannot help themselves. I enjoy seeing the smiles of the elderly that feels if no one cares and has forgotten about them. A personal achievement that I am proud is furthering my education in the field of work that I love to do.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
