I have a strong background in caregiving. That has always been my role in the family and for others, i.e., friends and employment. I enjoy being with the patient, conversing, assisting in personal care, preparing their meals, and daily exercising to stay healthy. I am a senior myself so understanding the needs and carrying them out is second nature to me. I have great transportation and flexible hours, but prefer more daylight hours than night time. Before I was an brand ambassador specialist, I was employed giving care to the elderly and those that were unable to do for themselves. Most of the assignments were enjoyable. I certainly had my favorites but gave all to each and everyone that I was assigned. I'm a senior as I said before, in very good health and mind. I've just completed a great class through the American Heart Association for my BLS/AED certificate. I believe this will help me in decision making should anything happen to the patient/client and who should be contacted if the person needs medical assistance. I enjoy working and being out in the public especially when I have a purpose.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
