Ursy has been with our Home Helpers team since January 2020. This is her second time receiving the Home Helpers of Bradenton’s Exceptional Caregiver of the Month award, showing both her passion and her commitment to our clients. “Ursy is certainly a specialist when understanding the needs of clients and their families and customizing care specifically for them. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard the office staff say ‘Wow, Ursy’s awesome!’ “, said Jonathan, owner of Home Helpers of Bradenton.
When asked about why she enjoys being a caregiver so much, she noted that she oftentimes feels like “the daughter they never had” and looks at them all as if they were a part of her family. She continued noting that she values and enjoys the opportunities to help and make people happy. She also smiled and reminisced about a recent situation where she had lunch with a client that was very depressed.
“We are constantly impressed by your work ethic and cheery attitude, day-in and day-out. We are also thankful for your recent contributions to the agency as we strive to continuously improve our services for our clients. Keep up the great work!”- Jonathan and the Home Helpers Admin Staff
