Well hello my name is Gia Cabrera, I started working as a caregiver about 1-2 years ago. What persuaded me to be a care giver is my great grandma who's currently sick. Being able to be there for her in regards to making sure her medication was given and her meals were hot. The feeling I had when I was a caregiver for a ex patient of mine is the fact that I get to hear her stories, and I get to bond with her and her family ( who would visit ) to know that maybe I was the person she may have needed to confide in or just have a conversation so she can feel good and stay in a happy environment! However , to answer the last question. My personal achievement I'd be proud of is the fact that I have the ability to care for those in need of support or friendship, the fact that I give off a nurturing attitude and always want what's best for my family and or work environment!
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
