I decided to become a caregiver to give people the independence to be in their home. I took care of my mother a quadriplegic for 2 years and she was so happy to be at home with her family. A proud achievement of mine was when I received my Missouri CNA so that I could continue to help others to realize that dream of being with their families as long as possible. I am a mother of three and I am currently studying nursing and plan to get my BSN from Central Missouri State University. I want to work Friday, Saturday and Sunday because I am in school Monday - Thursday. I can work 12 hours a day those three days.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
