Pros
Getting to know your client and knowing they are being taken care of correctly is awesome. Making your own schedule is pretty good, too. If you get lost getting to a client, call the office and they will help you out with directions while letting the client know you're on the way.
Cons
The pay is horrible. A 24 hour shift gets you paid $144. That means $6 per hour!!! Not only do you have to deal with constant calls about taking more shifts or other shifts being cancelled, but you have to remember you can say no. Being sent to a home with two clients and only getting paid for taking care of one is just not fair. This is non medical care, but you are basically doing CNA work with no certification and half the pay!
