I became a caregiver because I care about people and I also have parents that are aging. I treat other people the way I want to be treated and that has been my philosophy all my life- instilled by my parents. I love being able to assist others. Currently I take care of a lady that has MS and several other ailments and I take her shopping and out to eat as well as take care of her dog- I love animals. This type of work is very full filling for me because I am able to take care of someone. Im very compassionate and I love to help others- I worked in the corporate world and took care of executives in daily administration but it wasnt as full filling as being able to care for another person.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
