All my life I always realized one thing about myself and that's that I always find myself taking care of others. I just want to help people, whether I know them personally or not. Currently, I work for a real estate company but I am in school studying to become a doctor. My brother had autism and he passed away five years ago. I spent my whole life taking care of him and now that he's gone I don't know what to do with myself. Even though I already have a job, I rather do something I enjoy which is spending time with someone who needs me as much as I need them.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
