About Smeralda

Working with elderly is my passion. I have worked with many clients with different health challenges like Stroke, Diabetes, Alzheimer's, Cancer, Parkinson's disease, Schizophrenia just to mention a few. I am a compassionate individual who enjoys providing exceptional care to people of different ages, specially elderly clients. It gives me great satisfaction to help someone and the job actually enables me to bring a positive change in the lives of my clients. I am a sociable person with a natural capability of providing continuous care. Patience is embedded in my personality and I am a good listener. Moreover, I believe that Caregiving is not just providing physical care to the patient assigned to you. Providing emotional support to your clients is also very important. In addition, ensuring that the patient's surroundings are organized and safe is my number one priority.
