I would be a great caregiver because I am attentive and responsible. I am very considerate and personable. I quickly adapt to the needs of whichever setting I am in. I am educated, bilingual and have an affinity to help others, especially the elderly. I really admire this type of work because I think there is something special about caring for the elderly. I think there are many valuable lessons to be learned while doing so. It seems to be an altruistic job. I enjoy getting to know the persons I care for and learning from one another.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
