I have been a caregiver since I was 13. My father developed a brain tumor and my mother developed cancer. They both passed away. I had my father with me for 13 years, and my three teen/young adult children all were born with a bone marrow failure syndrome and have multiple health issues. I am CPR certified. I have been a Lactation Consultant and worked as a CNA in home care as well as in the hospital and nursing home setting. I was born to be a caregiver. I am most proud of being a mother to special needs children.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
