Hello, I am now a graduate student and have a strong desire to help others. What contributes to my ability to be an excellent caregiver is my compassion and an understanding of the person I am caring for at the moment. I became a caregiver after caring for my grandmother who suffers from dementia, and I quickly learned how gratifying it is to assist someone to have a better day. I've spent the last few years caring for individuals with developmental impairments. I bathe them, cook for them, clean for them, transport them, and give them their medications. Personally, I love the company, simply conversing with people and getting to know them, as well as them getting to know me. I'm pleased of the patience I've developed and how much my clients adore me and are always sad to see me go; this tells me I done a good job.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
