About Elaine

I have always loved the nursing field from a very young age. It was my hope to be a RN but I wasn't able to pursue that line of work. I received my CNA liscense in 1998 and started working in convalescent home, then I work private duty from there on. If i can lift the spirit of a person that is having a difficult time, then I have done my job. If I can make that person smile or laugh that brightens my day. Whether cleaning, reading book to someone, helping them or fixing a meal; these can reduce the stress an elderly person feels. Sometime the other caregiver need a break. I assure the members of the family that all will be well. Being a caregiver give me a sense of pride. I know that all people are not the same, but if I can help one person relax or show them a better way to attain the results needed to help them, my job has been accomplish. My personal achievement was to see a person walk after having a stroke.. I have been in the business of health care since 1998. I just love being around the elderly client. You can learn so much about them and the things they have been through. All you have to do is listen
