I am a loyal, patient, and honest person who enjoys helping others. I chose to be a caregiver because I understand the conditions and felt the need to help; I put other peoples needs before my own. My grandmother, who has had multiple strokes, is now paralyzed on her right side of her body and is unable to speak and do any of her daily activities. My aunt who is an RN had taught me the ropes on to being my grandmother's temporary caregiver. Not only did I enjoy the time spent with my grandmother, but I also enjoyed that I was able to give back and make an impact on her life. I only hope to do the same for others.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
