What makes me a good caregiver? Well, I am a great caregiver because I do this genuinely. Of course one would enjoy the financial benefits, but the true benefit is seeing the care you provide add joy to someone else. I have a passion for other people and their wellbeing. And I am content knowing that I contributed to that persons wellbeing. Why did I become a Caregiver? I became a caregiver because I needed a way to give back. With so many other career choices i found taking care of those who can't take care of themselves can be rewarding if its true to something you want to do. What do I like about Care giving? Seeing my clients satisfied with the care and companionship I provided. A personal achievement I am proud of? Hmm, I guess I would say learning to have a charitable heart and truly understanding what it means to give more than you receive.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
