Every aspect of my life is focused on caring for the elderly. My full time job with Adult Protective Service as a Human Service Technician, I have seen the elderly in abusive situations whether it be physical or mental. My job allows me to come in and assist elderly individuals with issues such as Medicare, Medicaid and or Social Security issues. I transport them to doctor's appointments. In addition I assist with ADL's. I assist with paying bills, purchasing groceries and medications. More importantly I always have time to just talk when needed. I have worked part time with various home health care agencies that assist elderly adults with ADL's. My hope is to assist the elderly without taking away all of their independence.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
