I am a very friendly person that loves hearing stories from my new friends. I am overly organized and like everything to be in its place. I enjoy helping out however I can! What attracted me about being a caregiver is that I love helping the elderly. I lived at home with my grandparents until I was 36 years old to help out with my grandpa who had COPD and Alzheimer's Disease. I recently was a caregiver for a man who had Lewy Body Dementia and I loved going to work everyday. He became my new grandpa in just the short time I was there.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
