About Ella

What makes me an excellent caregiver...I am genuinely friendly and compassionate person. I love working with the elderly especially because you can learn so much from their experiences and life stories. My personal experience that really drove me to continually care for people was my only sister who passed away March 2015. She had renal failure and other health problems. I cared for her at our mother's home until her death. My mother was not strong enough to do all the care as far as her feeding tube and giving her medicine through it. Changing her briefs bathing and all other care. My bond with her was very strong and she always told me that I would work with people like her...when i was younger I did not understand but when she passed away it dawned on me. My sister was so free hearted loving funny and smart. I got my certification in memory of her and plan on furthering my education into Registered Nursing. I treat all my patients like my family and the way i would care for my own. Family is everything to me and being there beside them is even more special. Caregiving started from the womb with me that's what my mom tells me...thanks for allowing me to share

    I became a caregiver because i love taking care of the elderly and people as a whole. Being able to give quality care at a high level of gratitude and expectation is what motivates me. One of the things I'm most proud of is a time when i walked in on a resident at the nursing facilities where i worked and his countenance just didn't look right so i asked the resident was he ok. He said yes but i just didn't have peace about it,so i called the nurse. To my surprise, he was on the verge of having a stroke due to the fact that i went to check in on him saved his life in time. And for that, I'm forever greatful.
