About Elizabeth

I have always been an empathetic person. I receive a great amount of gratification by helping people. I feel I can make a difference in an individuals life with a helping hand or just take the time to listen to the wants and needs of others. I consider myself a handy woman that includes making dinners to fixing the hinge on the door! A personal achievement or accomplishment would be to have raised to beautiful boys and put them through college as a single parent. My husband passed away at a very young age and I believe that inner strength and positive attitude is your most powerful asset in life.

I grew up watching my parents taking care of my grand parents , I guess it comes naturally to me doing the same . Taking care of other gives you that inner satisfaction which is hard to find in other work settings. I'm proud to be a Nurse .
