For years in my childhood to my early teen years I helped to take care of my grandmother who raised me. Taking care of her has made me more open to doing this as a career. I am looking to get my CNA license in the nearby future and I feel in-home care will be great experience for jobs I may seek to pursue in the future. I believe I am very reliable and trustworthy and always looking to learn new things and meet new people. Several of my family members I grew up around have jobs in health care. For example, I went to work with my aunt in a assisted living facility when I was younger and made friends with the elderly.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
