I believe that my experience is part of what makes me a wonderful caregiver. Partly because my experience in caregiving includes caring for both of my parents, and my late husband, at the end of their lives. Experience, compassion and empathy create a well rounded caregiver which is what I have to offer. Empathy and compassion are some of the personality traits I have to offer. But to make a great caregiver you must include tolerance and an open mind to understanding the human condition and to be mindful of others points of view. My experience also comes with a strong educational background regarding the tasks and skill set required of a complete home health care provider and the individual needs of the clients I assist.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
