Hello my name Raven, I have been a caregiver for over 25 yrs. I started out at the age of 14, sitting with my step-grandmother who suffered with Dementia and Alzheimers. That started my love for this kind of work. Ive always enjoyed sitting and talking with the elderly population, you can learn so much from them. Listen to their love stories, war stories, how life was different for them growing up. I've worked in nursing homes, hospitals, and have done some private duties. So my experience covers a broad area.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
