I became a Caregiver because I like to bring comfort and encouragement to people who can't do things for themselves and I like to make people smile and give them comfort. I like being a Caregiver because I do bring comfort to people and I get to encourage them also. A personal achievement that I am (not so much proud of but) am glad to hear the people that I am caring for tell me that they are glad that I am taking care of them and hope that I will be back the next day. I have been a Caregiver(CNA)since 1995, I have worked in Nursing Homes, Assisted Living and Home Care. My favorite is Home Care and then Assisted Living.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
