I am a great caregiver because I help people that can not do some things by themselves. I also love helping others and making them feel better. Being a great caregiver is someone you can trust, talk to, and also be there when family can not. When you are a great caregiver, sometimes you need to be patient with the other person. When you have patience with them it shows the other person that you care and are willing to help. Also you may be caring for someone that does not have a positive outlook on life and that is when you let them know that everything is not negative, and there are things that are positive in life.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
