Being a cargiver can be a bit of a big deal to some people but for me its a way of life. It gives me a great pleasure to know I contribute to the happiness of the elderly daily . I went into the caregiver profession because I have been taking care of my both parents ,(dad 86 and mom 73) and both parents are still living till today and its a thing of joy and pride for me and I just figured I should extend such love to other families. So , for me caregiving is not about the money but the joy of giving love and care to those who really needs it.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
