There are many life experiences and personal qualities that will make me an outstanding caregiver, but I will only mention the most important ones to me. Caregiving has always been my passion every since a little girl. My life experiences and qualities that will be brought to you is my care for others, my amazing communication skills, and last, but not least, the responsibility that will be given to me to complete a task. An effective caregiver is caring, understanding, and nonjudgmental with a strong ability to empathize with patients from all over. Communication skills are a basic foundation for any career, but for caregivers it is one of the most highly important aspects of the job. You must know how to communicate. A good caregiver is able to communicate easily with patients and families with no problem. Effective communication skills in caregiving create a high level of patient satisfaction. Finally, with the right responsibility, caregiving can be an amazing rewarding career. A good caregiver must perform all of their responsibilities with the accuracy and detail. They play a huge role in treating patients. They have to be able to keep track of and record minor changes in a patient’s health or behavior, because neglecting to notice something could end up having serious consequences and we don’t want that. As a caregiver, you must be able to interpret patient information and make critical decisions about needed actions and their safety. With hard work and determination, I believe I could conquer all and I am well prepared to work for it.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
