I am 21 years old I am currently enrolled in nursing school to retrieve my nursing degree to become an rn . I have been a care giver for a few years now it started when I was 16 I started being my grandmothers care giver until she sadly passed away in 2018 , I then worked for a care giving agency called almost family until the location I worked at closed down . My favorite thing about being a caregiver is seeing the joy I bring when being active in my clients life ; and seeing the youthfulness in them when they give their words of wisdom or advice it truly warms my heart .
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
