I'm a very careing and loving person for children & seniors I'm always wanting to help others in need , I'm hoping to further my career in child care in the near future. I enjoy caregiving because having a successful career in this aged care industry involves finding enjoyment in helping our most vulnerable, elderly community and feeling inspired by your decision to work in this industry. If compassion and enjoyment don't come easily when caring for the elderly, then being a PCA may not be the right choice for you. This doesn't mean that every part of the job should feel like pure joy there are some activities that are even unpleasant, but it's about appreciating the fact that you are making a bigger difference, knowing that you are doing something for others that is improving their quality of life.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
