I worked at a nursing home (Social Row Transitional Center) in Centerville Ohio from 8/2018 to 7/2021. I was a receptionist, but also was utilized as an aid to assist nursing staff when necessary. I also cared for my Mom prior to her passing, and cared for a client (I'd cleaned her home for 2 yrs. ) after she was diagnosed with cancer. Her family hired me to come in to do meals, clean, grocery shop, take her to MD appointments and monitor her medications. I'm currently helping a friend with her Mom, who is in a nursing home and I provide 4 hour coverage so the family can get breaks.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
