1. My family was involved in an automobile accident one summer. Even though I was just five years old It was not hard to tell which nurses and doctors loved their jobs. There was one nurse in particular that I still remember. The compassionate care she offered during that tragic time is the reason I have chosen nursing as my profession. 2. I like being a caregiver because I get the opportunity to make a positive impact on a patient and family that are going through a scary/difficult time. I like the friendships I've made with clients and staff. What I love most is bumping into a former patient outside the facility and they still remember me by name. 3. I am a caregiver by nature, genuinely interested in the wellbeing of others. I take my responsibilities seriously, seeking what needs to be done and doing it right.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
