Being a caregiver is more than ' just a job'. Its a chance to help brighten someone's world.I love caring for and helping others .I've been in home health since I was 18 and I'm 37 now .Being able to make people smile, while tending to their needs, is all I know.I think what sets me apart from some caregivers is, I actually care about people. I have obtained my MA diploma from Everest Institute in 2010. I do plan on continuing my education in the medical field. My normal rate starts at 25 an hour ,but it is negotiable.My most personal achievement is ,that I manage to help my clients maintain their independence ,and that I make a positive difference in someones life.
