About Brisa

Ever since I was a little kid I've always wanted to help people. In high school I volunteered all four years at a senior facility that offered different activities for them to participate in. Throughout those four years I also visited my grandmother every other day and visited her. I helped clean her apartment, as well as other day today activities. I'm happy to say that at 93 she's still going strong, and we talk on the phone all the time. I truly found my calling with my current job caring for almost 40 people a night, split between myself and two other employees. I make sure my clients are happy and loved. When I know they are low on anything (whether it's socks or food) I make sure they are never without.

Personality traits I think that make me a great caregiver is my desire to help people who may not be able to help themselves. My compassion for others attracts me to the career of a caregiver. I enjoy the great conversations and the relationships i built with the clients. One of my personal achievement is becoming a auntie i always wanted to be a cool auntie.

The reason why i became a caregiver was because i wanted to better myself, i wanted to help people. I knew it would be rewarding but no where near as rewarding as it really is! I love being a caregiver. I use to wake up and dread going to work! Now i love it so much, i just love being able to be with them with their family can't, Its so much more than just a paycheck to me. As a caregiver most of the time we are the first ones they see before they go to bed, and the first when they wake up. We have the choice be able to make there day wonderful! I have that chance that even though there sad about being in the position they are, that they know that they are still loved and still cared for! That no matter what someone will be there holding there hand! I am definitely emotionally involved in what i do! & thats what makes it so amazing !!
