I have always been interested in the health field. When I was younger I recall seeing my great uncle in the hospital and all the machines and functions that each caregiver gave really amazed me. During my CNA training, we were placed in a nursing home for 6 weeks to get on the job training, in this time I went out of my way to do many different things that most other caregivers would not think of or remember to do. I love to help others and make anyone as comfortable as possible. When caring for anyone I always think "What if this were my family member?" and that makes me strive even harder to please the person that I'm caring for.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
