About Yelena
Experience: 10 yrs
Now I am with a Rehabilitation and Nursing Center (2+ years and running) - as a CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant). I was a caregiver for seniors for some years in 1996-2015, and as a social worker in senior housing for City of Chicago Senior Services Department for 10 years (until our program closed). I find working with seniors very rewarding and a rich experience. I have a good rapport with my charges and their families, I am a good cook and well versed in different cuisines and diets. I am familiar with different medical requirements, can measure blood sugar, collect specimens for tests, take vitals, prevent bedsores, etc. I am a certified nursing assistant (CNA), registered with Illinois Board of Health I am strong, caring and painstaking. Hope to hear from you soon. Lena

We interviewed Yelena over the phone for 30 minutes and then set up a time to do an interview in person. Communication was discussed at length and we were promised the moon on those skills. Yet, Yelena does not respond to messages, so it was difficult to even schedule the phone interview. Of course several messages were sent regarding the missed interview to no avail. Yelena has dropped off the face of the earth.
