About Torita

Hi, Growing up I used to help my mother to care and look after my grandparents back home in Samoa. They mean the world to me. I've always love to help others especially elderly .I love putting smile on their face and hearing their life stories. I've been working in facilities, home care agencies, or help to relieve some of my family/friend members who does care giving as well. I am very enthusiastic, hard working, dependable, and trust worthy. I have strong work ethic and can adapt to any situation. Nurturing is a big part of my culture, as it comes naturally to me. The most beautiful thing about this line of work, is how I'm able to witness a transformation of patients while under my care. I just love what I do.
