| Every elder has a history worthy of an attentive ear. Isolation only serves to exacerbate loneliness, depression, cognitive and physical decline and it's important the elder has opportunities to engage in activities they enjoy in familiar surroundings with individuals that support and foster a safe, enjoyable atmosphere with a hint of humour while respecting the elder's rights to make choices.

| I am a 28 year old female who lives in Kelowna. I have a 7 year old Husky who loves to accompany me on walks and car rides. I am definitely a sucker for a good cup of tea. Although I do not have any experience in Senior Care specifically, I do have a plethora of experience in customer service positions. I have also had a very personal experience caring for a family member. Years ago, my mother contracted C.Difficile. There was 6 weeks of hospitalization, including ICU care. Upon discharge, I was the primary caregiver. For three months, I had to help with meal preparation, bathing, medication schedules, and managing the household. I have always really enjoyed interacting with seniors. The stories, the cute little quirks, and the ridiculously good feeling you get when you help someone. I enjoy listening to stories, even if I have heard them a time or two before, and even the sass I find pretty humorous. Our seniors deserve someone who is going to enjoy being around them. I know it's hard enough for some seniors to come to terms with the fact that they need help, so why not make it as pleasant as possible?
