"For me, finding caregivers that are great at what they do and help our clients stay safely at home is very fulfilling. The caregiver plays such an important role, and my job is to find caregivers that align with our mission and values. I've always been told, "I've never met a stranger," and I guess that's true because I enjoy talking to people and getting to know them. That definitely comes in handy with my role."
