About Elaine

I am a very positive outgoing person that is compassionate, patient, an loving. I am very understanding an love giving companionship to people. My grandma is a retired nurse an my mom was an x-technician. The medical field runs in my family. I absolutely love helping people an making a difference in people's lives. Some of the elderly don't have people they can rely on or have that companionship so I like being able to be that person that makes their day. I love helping people. I love being the person that might make a difference in their lives. I love hearing stories about their lives. My grandparents raised me an I help them all I can an some of them don't have that extra living helping hand. Someone they can trust. They joy I get from being there for people that need me is such a great feeling for me. I personally have achieved strangers that have become my family an I think that to me is the greatest accomplishment of all.
