About Elena

When I discovered cargiving I immediately found what I was meant to do. Many years ago I took care of my 90 year old grandmother with dementia that later turned in to advanced stage alzheimers. I also helped care for my nephew with severe fetal alcohol syndrome. When I care for my clients I give them the care I would have given to my grandmother or my nephew. Caregiving is a passion for me and if I could not help take care of others and help provide them with the best possible care, I dont what else I could truly find joy in on a daily basis. I am currently in school training to become a licensed nurse. I eventually would like get earn my masters in nursing so one day I can can help teach others the art and compassion of caregiving.

I believe what makes me a great caregiver is that I take care of all my patients as if they were my own family and make sure they are comfortable and most importantly I listen to their needs. I first became interested in health care when my mother was ill and needed care herself and realized that I had a real passion for helping others. I enjoy knowing that the family can be at ease knowing I'm there taking care of their loved ones. At Long Beach Memorial I was know as the "sitter whisper" because whenever they had a difficult patient they would alway assign me that patient and by the end of the day the patient would no longer require restraints or was completely compliant and friendly. They always ask what was my secret and I would say I simply listen to what their needs are.

I'm a compassionate and patient kind of person. I'm a single dad to a 11-year old daughter after taking care of my wife who died of cancer for 3 years. My mantra in life is to treat other people the way I wanted to be treated. My daughter is always saying that I'm too nice. People who would meet me and my daughter for the first time are saying that I'm raising my daughter as kind and polite as I am. I'm eager to learn new knowledge and open to suggestions. I would rather ask questions than pretend to know everything and fall short of the expectations. I always put myself in my patients'shoes to understand them better. It is not them but it's the illness that is making them not to be themselves at the moment. It feels great to be appreciated by the patient and their family for what i've done to lighten the everyday pain in their lives. I'm proud with what I do, and I find other ways to do my best by adding value to the career I've chosen to do.
