I think that the best traits I carry as a caregiver, is that I am patient, and sympathetic as well. I truly care for each and every person I am able to care for. I've always had a passion for the Senior Community, I've always loved their wisdom and looked up to it. Once I got older, I wanted to learn more, and give back to them. The one thing I find most rewarding, and that I enjoy most about being a caregiver, is that I get to help somebody everyday. Whether it's something small, or large. One of my personal achievements that I am proud of is when I was 15 years old, I went to a local small college to go through their CNA program, and while doing so I worked my clinical hours at the local nursing home. There I was exposed to a vast majority of diverse needs, rapidly, and it helped me grow and learn to love this career even more so.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
