I became a caregiver because I liked the direct, daily involvement in caring for the elderly. I want the elderly to know that to me you have value and purpose. The challenges of day-to-day effort to improve the client's quality of life makes the work interesting to me. It makes me have to change to meet their needs. This results in me being a better caregiver and a better person. I love the fact I help this person to live out the rest of their life with dignity, making sure they can be given the best care every day, and not left behind by the world.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
