The first time I ever thought about being a caregiver was when I was 22 years old.Having the feeling the need to take care of people other than yourself was never hard for me as I grew up in life.When my mother was sick going through dementia I took care of her throughout the whole process.It was as extremely difficult job because it was someone close to my heart,but I had to be her backbone that everything will be just fine which eventually did.She was getting her old self back which was great.So as far as that that's when I decided to make cargiving as my career.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
