About Elisa

hello, what makes me a great Caregiver is the passion for what i do .this means I'm not only in it for the compensation i genuinely care for people in need. i became a care giver because i enjoy helping others and have the personal understanding of and the connection with what the client is going through. being able to empathize allows me to put myself in the clients shoes. one of my personality traits that has helped me over the years of being a great caregiver is identifying and easing client`s fears or discomfort.
