About Lizzie

I became a caregiver because I have a passion to take care of people. I like to be helpful to people, to help them hold on to their dignity when limited by health. I've learned to listen to the client and not comment on their sharing info.; just keep them uplifted spirit wise, keep them engaged in a happier moment. I've noticed that people are happier when their needs are met promptly, in a caring manner, when privacy is maintained . Treat w/ empathy, I have lots of patience, I'm punctual, attentive ,trust worthy, caring and never in a rush. I must keep my client safe. I need to assure the client that they can trust me and I respect them and their home. I'm there to work for them not tell them what to do. I always respect their things.

    What makes me a great caregiver I will say that I really care about people I tried to listen to what their needs and wants are and try to provide them with the best of my ability. I'm a caring loving person I believe in treating people the way you want to be treated, I became a caregiver when I was 13 years old taking care of my grandmother and her friends that was Eastern star members. I would go to their homes and prepare their food and take out the garbage and clean their homes in the summertime I found a lot of joy in helping them. The most thing that I enjoy about being caregiver is being there for someone that really needs me, listening to their stories, providing the care that they need. It gave me great joy to know that I am need it and want it. My personal achievement is to start my own group homes for the homeless, for the children, and for the seniors, and for the mentally ill. I want to see if community their work together stays together I think everyone needs each other to make this world a better place to live .
