Overall Compensation for your work

Extremely low pay. Even with rare overtime pay, after the cost of benefits, I was making about $440 per week. With 3 children that left me below the poverty line. When I went to negotiate a new salary with my next employer they felt I had lived with such a low salary they felt it would be fair to offer me less at my next job.

Suggestions for improvement

• Pay should start at least $18 per hour if people are responsible for both the health and financial safety of your patients
