I became a caregiver because I have always wanted to take care of people. Helping people who are ill with their daily life and easing their stress is what I love most about being a caregiver but there are many things I enjoy about it. My personal achievement that I am most proud of is doing hospice for three plus years and enjoying it everyday. Knowing that I can ease the stress for people and their families during this stage in life is rewarding. I recently moved to North Carolina from Arizona and miss working. I enjoy doing private care because you can spend more quality time with people. I am currently working on finishing my RN degree.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
