I am a helpful, loving person that wants happiness for others just as much as I want it for myself. I believe helping people is one of the best things a person can do, especially when they can't fully care for themselves. Being a care giver is something that I have done most of my adult life in one way or another (about 5 years professionally). I helped my grandfather before his dementia set in, and was his main caregiver when he started struggling with dementia and eventually could no longer care for himself at all. Watching someone that was like my father go down that path was painful, but I consider it a privilege and a blessing that I was able to be there for him in his last years. I'm a very honest, loving, loyal person; and will care for whomever I'm caring for the same as I did my grandfather.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
