I believe in providing the best possible care for every senior I work for. I'm a very hand's on caregiver, by that I mean I will never be on my phone or computer while the senior is awake or in need of something. I will talk to them and listen to all their stories, even if they make them up or recite them to me 20 times. I will never let them sleep all day or take a nap unless you want them to. I don't allow them to do this because I want to keep them on a schedule so they don't mess up yours. I will never leave them in bed all day, because they can develop very painful bed sores easier this way. If they like and are allowed to go on walks or play board games I will gladly do this with them. I will also prepare meals, shower them, take them to the toilet or change their diappers, change their feeding tubes, and do house work. I provide all of these services so that you don't become overwhelmed with the caring of your senior.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
