I've been a caregiver for a long time. It's more than just a job I go to everyday. I love it when a person can stay in their own home, where they are comfortable and feel secure rather than be admitted into a nursing facility. I believe that people heal better and do better in their own homes but many times, without help, they are unable to stay at home. Some need more help than others and I never push but rather see how much they can do for themselves and be a standby-assist where necessary. I do for my clients what they can no longer do for themselves.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
