Caregiver of the Month
Caregiver of the Month: Ellen B.
Easy Living Home Care is honored to award Ellen Briggs caregiver of the month for November.
Ellen is a dedicated, compassionate and patient caregiver. She has been a caregiver with us for approximately 7 years. Ellen goes above and beyond what is expected of her and always gives 110% no matter the circumstances. Ellen has a great sense of humor and loves laughing with the clients.
We asked Ellen a couple questions about her caregiving position.
What do you like most about caregiving? “I enjoy helping the clients.”
What made you want to become a caregiver? “I wanted to do something that was rewarding and caregiving for the elderly is very rewarding.”
Thank you Ellen, you’re a true asset to Easy Living Home Care!
