Being reliable, arriving for work on time and fulfilling all duties in a timely manner. Respecting your patients' privacy and dignity. Exhibiting a positive demeanor and kind tone of voice. Being considerate and kind when caring for the patient. I became a caregiver, because caregiving is an extremely rewarding job. I am very proud of the day I was showering a patient and she was so sad because her family wasn't able to come see her so I turned her favorite artist (Edith Piaf) on and curled her hair done her makeup and painted her nails I will always remember the way she thanked me with tears in her eyes and told me I really made her day better.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
