My personality consists of being extremely empathetic and patient. I'm very aware that at a certain time in all of our lives, we will all need the help of others in some way. Caregiving is an excellent way to develop new skills, learn to listen, and make a difference in someone's life. The vocation of caregiving requires heart. It's not a job, caregiving is a calling. One of the most important caregiver qualities is compassion. Understanding what their patient is going through is of the utmost importance in this line of work. A few personal achievements of mine are when I've been requested by those I've provided care for over and over because they felt comfortable with me and that their needs were being met.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
