One of my personal achievements that I am proud of is doing what I like to do. And doing the best I can. The thing i like most about being a caregiver is that I get to talk and interact with older people. Giving them an extra person to have a conversation with. Some personality traits that help me become a great caregiver is that I'm kind, respectful, helpful, i always give my all and do my best. I'm goofy and like to have fun and play board games. What attracted me to wanting to be a caregiver is that I feel like I can learn a lot from older people. And hearing their life stories are so amazing and educational.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
