Angels Who Soar: Celebrating Our Hardworking Employees
We are so proud of our wonderful, hard-working employees who go beyond the call of duty. Below is why our Angels are so special...
Elba Z. is not only a great caregiver employee who our clients appreciate, but she is also reliable, friendly, and eager to help out in a pinch. Recently, we had an assignment that needed to be filled quickly. Elba jumped in even though it meant she had to rearrange her personal schedule in order to help us out. She is very easy to talk to and is a genuinely nice person--terrific attributes for a professional caregiver!
Maleekia C. uses her love of people to great advantage as a professional CHHA. Her cheerful enthusiasm is infectious! She's also very adept at accompanying clients to doctor visits, not only with skillful safety supervision, but also by taking detailed notes during the visit for future reference. She is truly an Angel who has a passion for her profession and it shows!

COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Each month, Rudy Tervooren (Co-Owner and Executive Director) travels throughout the community visiting referral sources and attending client meetings.
