Growing up I took care of my grandmother that had a neurological disease. I would help bathe her, feed her, give her medications as needed, and kept her company all day, everyday. Though I don't have any professional experience yet, I believe i'd be the ideal care taker. I have a lot of patience and empathy for others, especially the elderly. I understand that most of the time they just want company and to know everything is going to be okay. Knowing this I know I would provide excellent assistance and great company to those who may be suffering or who just need a little extra help with their daily activities.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
