My name is Rhina and I am a foreign-trained physician from El Salvador, Central America. I live in Pittsboro with my husband and children. I speak Spanish and intermediate English (for now). Ever since coming to the US, I have worked as a caregiver for the elderly and children. In the past, I have cared for four elderly patients. Their special needs ranged from dementia to Parkinson's to COPD. I have also worked with children. I took care of two little boys full-time and I also work with the non-profit in Chapel Hill, where I support teachers and other staff in development programs geared towards children from newborns to 12 years old kids.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
