I am a great caregiver because I enjoy helping others. I am really down to earth, compassionate, understanding, and easy to get along with. I chose this line of work because I have empathy for others who are in need. I enjoy being able to provide assistance for people along with their families. I feel I am an asset to this career path and want to continue to give back. A personal achievement of mine is in regards to one client that had an attitude and temper which caused all her previous caregivers to give up and refuse to work with her. I was able to work with her and get past all of the anger and confusion. I eventually was able to gain her trust and the relationship formed into a healthy and positive one.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
