About Elyse

I am currently working as an Occupational Therapy Assistant for a Home Health company and would like to fill in gaps in my day assisting people with everyday tasks. Caregiving provided people with increased independence, companionship, and I enjoy spending time with my patients/clients. I am proud of myself for changing directions in career from teacher to occupational therapist at the age of 40. I am a caring and patient person who treats my patients as if they were my family members. My patients tell me I am encouraging, have a good sense of humor and that I am a genuine person.

    Hello, I have been a caregiver for 15 years. What made me decide to help and take care of people, when I seen my grandmother at 15 years old dying from colon cancer in a nursing home. Why I feel I am a good caregiver is because I treat people the way I would want to be treated, with respect, honesty, and reliability. I cared for my mom 4 1/2 years ago on hospice care in my own home, she died in 2012 from endometriosis cancer. I know I did the best I could, and I am glad I was there for her like she was for me.
