I have received training in both physical therapy and hospital settings. My expertise in Kinesiology aids in addressing mobility concerns with home bound patients. During my various hospital placements, I have worked with all age groups. Although I was unable to complete my nursing degree, I earned valuable skills that would positively impact my role as a caregiver. Personally, I would enjoy being a caregiver, because I always enjoyed the patient care side of nursing. Patience to attend to each individual's needs is not always afforded in a large hospital setting. The in-home setting allows the building of a relationship, so that the patient can build trust in me as the caregiver.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
