About Loreka

I am a very caring person. I look for the good in everyone. What attracted me to caregiving was my grandmother (favorite person in my life), was diagnosed with Cancer and all i wanted to do was help her get through it, or make things easier for her. She passed away and it showed me how far I am willing to go to make sure I take of those in need. What I enjoy most about caregiving is making sure my job is done and making sure the client is happy. A person achievement that I am proud of is being admired for my skills to make people feel comfortable and trust me.
