I became a caregiver because of my mom. My mom was actually my very first client. I started caregiving when I was 18 and have been working inside facilities and in-homes since. I am compassionate and patient when it comes to taking care of others. I like to see things (or at least try my best to) how my clients and residents see things so that way I can best help them. I enjoy being able to help my clients and residents live a happier and easier life with the additional help and support from another who cares. I am very proud of how far I've come and how far I continue to reach. I am currently going back to school to be an MA so I can continue to help others around me. I anticipate going all the way to the top in the medical field, working my way up to an NP or PA.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
