I am a great caregiver because I have compassion for the elderly and disabled. I became the caregiver for my daughter at her age of 18yrs old. I was 39 yrs old when she was in a car accident. She has a closed head injury and was in a comma for four months. I had to help her do everything from eating to dressing. This was 26 yrs ago, now she is in a assisted living home. My personal achievement that I am proud of is taking care of my daughter all of this time. I am not only a caregiver but a family member of someone that needs care. So I feel both sides.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
