I sometimes feel more like a waitress/zookeeper than a direct care aide.

Its even harder when your trained by the state to take care of your own family members and your family is harder on you then a regular client is

You do everything you can to keep from screaming and yelling at them even more

We've never heard of a direct care aide... but we know what a waitress and a zookeeper are.
