Integrity is one of the most valuable traits and qualities I possess when it comes to caregiving. I believe in treating the individual as I or my family member would want to be treated if we were on opposing sides. I became attracted to being a caregiver when I realized people really need to be loved and taken care of properly. Not just for a pay check but because they enjoy it and because they're passionate about it. I enjoy it because it doesn't feel like a job. The person you're caring for can become like family to you if they're open. A personal achievement I'm proud of is the fact that I'll graduate with my degree in December.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
