1. I became a caregiver because I felt like it would be a great way to get my foot through the door to start my nursing career. I also have elderly grandparents and I can relate to families who need a bit of help assisting their loved ones with living. 2. I love being able to build bonds with people, make them feel comfortable, and make them feel stress free. Being able to help someone who needs it is the best feeling. 3. I am currently enrolled in school and have a 3.8 GPA. That is one of my proudest achievements. 4. I am an energetic, friendly person who loves to help and aid those in need. I am 19 and I am currently enrolled in nursing school. I am very flexible and willing to work around stiff schedules. I have prior experience with caregiving and am currently employed through a caregiving agency.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
