I became a caregiver simply because I have a heart for wanting to help others, especially the elderly. If I can go through life and am able to say that I helped save a life or take care of someone for a day, then I know that I can feel accomplished. It has always been a dream of mine since I was little to grow up and be able to help others and if that means helping the elderly then I am there! I am outgoing, personable, funny (I like to think so anyways), and love conversation or just sitting in silence (however the clt. is feeling). I love the feeling that when I leave, they know I will return back tomorrow for our same day routine.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
