I became a Caregiver while in high school. My mom was diagnosed with Leukemia my freshman and i immediately stepped up and became her Caregiver up until her very last days (4.5 years). I love that I can bring a smile to peoples face, the thought of knowing that someone is there for them no matter what. I'm 26 years old and this is what i want to do for the rest of my life. My personal achievement was graduating from Christian Brothers High School. I'm currently in college finishing my general ed, from there Ill be enrolled in a CNA program then Nursing school to become a RN. I currently have been working as a Non-Medical Transportation Driver for 2 years. I have dialysis, gurney, and much more experience.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
