As a caregiver I'm a very patient, compassionate, and an assertive person. I can help my patients stay calm and avoid frustration, I find balance and understanding, also being a good advocate for my patient needs. Growing up my family couldn't afford caregivers so we took care of each other that really pushed me to help assist and care for others. What I really enjoy about being a caregiver is being there for my patient. Some patients don't have families or anyone at all so me showing up and then knowing I'm here is all I need. Personally I'm proud of the hardships that I've overcame.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
