Working in that field is not an easy thing. I have a friend who works for https://homecareassistance.com/palm-beach, and some of the stories she tells me are really sad. Still, she loves her job because taking care of someone is what she wants to do. It's great that we have people who are willing to do something like that because I would never be able to do so.
Once my parents get old, I will hire a caregiver who will take care of them. Old people love their caregivers because it's nice to have someone willing to help them with all the things they have to do.
