About Elsa

I'am a great caregiver because I'am a very responsible, knowledgeable, dedicated and compassionate, loving individual who is very proud of the work I do. My best achievement in being a caregiver is the satisfaction and positive healing and caring that patient and family has expressed towards the service that I have done for them and knowing that being a nurse is the best decision I have made for myself and my family and to whoever has been affected and been involved in the process.

I am an excellent Caregiver, no challenge or task when it comes to my patients needs are refused (unless detrimental to the patient.) I never take chances when lifting or transfer patient with special special needs I'm a good listener. Respect is big thing when it comes to caring for the sick. "They are not children" and should treated and respected as adults I have a way of respectfully getting them to exercise, take the medication, bath, exedra. Because I know these patients that. An also suffer from depressed, I try really hard to keep their spirits up and remind them they are loved and cared for. Have the abilities to speak with doctors and articulate whats needed for the patient. Make appointments. Order and prepare medications. Check vitals, including blood sugar. Give insulin shots.
