About Elizabeth

I am a twenty year-old college student living and studying in Southern Illinois. I am very active in my church, and enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking or kayaking. Originally from Alabama, I spent my early childhood observing and helping my mother and grandmother care of my great-grandmother, who spent 40 years in a wheel chair due to a stroke. I consider myself fortunate for this personal experience with my great-grandmother, Ruth, because I witnessed firsthand how important it is to handle disability with dignity, respect, humor, and practicality. As my great-grandmothers abilities and needs changed, I watched her caregivers work to help find a "new normal," not only for my grandma, but for our entire family. As a caregiver, my personal objective is to not only ensure my patient's health needs are met, but also assist my patient in finding enjoyment or interest in each day.

I do my best to maintain a positive outlook and attitude each day no matter what challenge arises. Im compassionate to others. I enjoy making conversation, cooking, animals, nature and music. I always put everyone I love and care about above me. I became attracted to caregiving while taking care of my grandmother. Being close to her my whole life has really shaped me into this career. Im somewhat old fashioned. I can't explain it, I've just always loved taking care of others. I enjoy the time i get to spend knowing and sharing memories with a client. Those small talks.. And the fact that they know they're not alone in their situation. Helping those who've always helped or taken care of us is a high privelege. Im most proud of my loved ones and taking care of my grandmother.
