I am a great caregiver because I can make them laugh and face the morning with a smile. I became a caregiver at first because that's the first full time job offered to me here in US but throughout the time I learned to live and embrace the works of a caregiver. I did things that's beyond my duty but doing it with precautions and safety such as hair cut and nail spa. I know I did a great job because their families praise me and thank me all the time. The best compliment I received as a caregiver, actually a lot.. first: my name was mentioned in my resident's obituary referring to me as a friend who gave excellent care companionship; second telling us that our home is the cleanest home they ever visited ( I technically do all the cleanings as my provider will tell them it's because of me) lastly; referring to us as angels on earth because of the care we're giving.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
