I have been working with elderly, children, and individuals who are mentally ill for 4 years; and it has been the most rewarding job I could've ever imagined. Working with a variety of individuals has taught me how to be open to new ideas; everyone learns differently, have their own capabilities, and how to adjust the care I provide to meet their needs. I assure to assist each person but still give them their own of freedom, I will respect their willpower to try to be independent as possible, but will be next to them to help them along the way. The most rewarding thing about being a caregiver has to be helping someone and seeing their progress along the way.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
