A personal trait or expertise that helps me be a great caregiver would be treating the patient the same way I'd want my mother or father to be treated. Loving the patient as if they are my own family member. I wanted to become a caregiver so I could take care of people! Ever since I was younger I loved taking care of people! What I enjoy the most about being a caregiver is walking in a room and seeing their face light up because they are so happy to see me! One of the achievement I'm most proud of is becoming a caregiver. Having the opportunity to be able to take care of someone!
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
