Hello, my name is Denise! A great personality trait I have that helps me be a great caregiver is a refreshed welcoming and positive attitude and energy that helps keep the elderly going happy and with it. I was attracted to being a caregiver when me and my mom spent a year in Chicago caring for my grandmother who suddenly became ill and died in my arms 6 months later. I enjoy learning about my client, their care, what keeps them happy and what I can do different each day to keep them comfortable. A personal achievement I am proud of is having the ability to care for others that I've mastered.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
