I make a great caregiver because I take pride in what I do for others and how I do it. I enjoy to see the people I take care happy and that I can make their day. The reason why I went into caregiver is because my grandmother passed away but before there wasn't anyone to look after her while she sick, with me being a very young age I could only do so much at that time, just everyday was hard no smile no excitement she was just there. And for me to be able to take care of someone it's a honor. I enjoy putting a smile on someone else face for a change making them feel like they have something to look forward to everyday. Having company can make alot of frowns turn around.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
