My name is Robin-Marie, I am 24 years old and I have been a caregiver for 7 years personally, and 4 years professionally, as well as a Med-Tech. I have been studying the medicaI field since I was 18. I became a caregiver because I grew up taking care of my grandmother, she became immobile and weak due to her age and health problems. Even at a young age, it saddened me to see her feel so helpless. So I began to help her with her everyday needs and made a difference. I love being a caregiver because I want to make a positive impact in people's lives. Knowing that someone depends on me motivates me to do everything in my power to make sure they are happy and knowing I can be not only a helper to someone, but a companion, brings me joy.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
