1. I had become a caregiver because, my life always consisted of taking care of my mother and grandmother, showing them love and kindness. And I thought being a caregiver would be a perfect fit for me. 2. I loved how I was able to help those that weren't able to do much for themselves. I enjoyed having the satisfaction of making someone's day brighter, helping them with their activities. Giving them something to look forward to. 3. I was able to finish school for Medical Assisting. First one in my family to go to college. 4. I have a lot of patience. Extremely responsible with any task that is given to me. I'm flexible with hours and always try to be available in case another caregiver can't make it to their assignment. I put in a lot of love and care into my job.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
