About Elaine

I am a very positive person, and have a bubbly personality. I am a great listener; I care about people's needs. I have a lot of patience. I can be sympathetic and empathetic. Years ago, I had a caregiver for my mother, and I witnessed how the caregiver took care of her. She had a good heart, I could see how good she felt about helping my mom out. So, I knew I would feel a similar way. The things that I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the fact that I know I am taking care of the my client's needs, making them feel comfortable and making a difference in their lives. I feel extremely rewarded in knowing that my clients look forward to me coming to take care of them every day. I have made them laugh, helped them become more positive about their lives, and listened to their needs and concerns.

I work for two clients. The first one I do shopping, cooking, laundry, errands(bank, pick up prescriptions), and take him for various doctor appointments. The second client has stage 4-5 Alzheimer's. I basically just have conversations with her and help her using the bathroom.
