About Elijah

*What makes me a great caregiver is I listen, I treat the person like they are my family. I give them choices because I'm simply here to make their lives better. More independent, happier. I'm honest, caring, loving, compassionate. Even if it is a bad day, I will never give up on the person I'm taking care of. *I became a caregiver because I have a passion and desire to help someone else in need. It isn't just a job for me, it's a career. I love what I do!! *What I like about being a caregiver is you can always come to work and make someone's day. I don't even consider it work honestly. *A personal achievement I'm proud of is my good health. Also I'd say being able to help staff when they are in need. A team players!!

Taking care of people and caring for people are two different things but I've always been intentional about both. I treat others the way I would want to be treated or how I would want someone to treat my loved ones. Growing up being raised by a family who took pride in helping others especially those who can't help themselves , giving back to the community , being selfless, seeing a need and being of service, and found more joy in simply being an humanitarian more than anything else, has really became apart of who I am. I believe in people maintaining their respect and dignity in all aspects of life, good and bad, and if I can help with that, then I will go above and beyond the call of duty to do so.
