For the past few years I have been interested in helping other people, being a caregiver is a way that I can start doing this and explore the career field of it. I have wanted to practice this for a while now and since i am nearly graduated, i have the time outside of my other duties to ensure that i can give my time and help to my patient. I adore being able to get past the awkward stage and going into the fun part of being with someone to care for, making sure that they are comfortable and happy. Laughs and overall improvement contribute to me enjoying the time of being a caregiver. I can be very talkative and sociable but still be attentive and strict with tasks that need to be done.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
