I became a caregiver after working as a medical assistant for five years. I decided to become a caregiver to provide quality care to seniors who want to continue to live in their homes. I enjoy working with people and ensuring that they receive care they deserve along with a healthy active lifestyle. As a caregiver I have continued my education to receive my associates in science degree and am working on my bachelors degree. I continue my education to keep myself updated on the ever changing needs for seniors and the changes in the health care field. This allows me to continue to provide the best care possible to my clients.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
