When I made the decision to become a Certified Nursing Assistant it was because I wanted to make a difference in peoples lives. I have had personal experience with loved ones who were not given the proper care they needed to thrive, so I decided to do something about it and get my certification, and it was the best decision I have made because by being a CNA I have had wonderful opportunities to meet many diverse people and given the chance to aid them in their last days or bring a smile to their face when life got them down. I believe I make a great caregiver because I have compassion and an understanding what its like to have a loved one who needs some assistance. I always think in every situation what it would be like if it was my own mother or loved one, and how I would want them to have the best care possible.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
