Many who "Became" Caregivers reasoning is far different for those "Who Are" Caregivers.
When you are a "Caregiver"
Quality Care is always provided / You Care
You understand that the lack of Inconsistent Care Management does not mean you.
You Self-Educate, you become Knowledgeable, and Prepared.
You commit Longterm, which eventually includes Palliative and Hospice Care, not included in the beginning stages of "training" which is more directly provided in the In Home Care of Caregiving, even when income does not match the Service you Provide, it is "who you are" and not "what you became" that keeps you committed, then there are those who "became" a Caregiver only to realize that this is "What they are" held back previously due to the untold truths of What a Caregiver really is, opposed to what a caregiver does.
Too many who "Became" do not change, it is not Natural for them yet effective.
Don't Become a (caregiver), Be a (Caregiver)
