I became a caregiver so that I could help the community in any aspect with their daily activities, some of them don't have family. I love being an listening ear and the arms and legs for my patients, I also love providing emotional support. A personal achievement I have is the ability to provide support to hospice patients, these patients leave extra emotional support. I am 44 and I am currently taking courses toward my R.N. degree, I have 2 dogs and 3 older children. I love what I do and am anxious to get back to work in any capacity.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
