If we could describe Berhan Habtu in one word, it would be happiness. Since joining the Family & Nursing Care Select team in 2022, she has brought such a joyful and lightheartedness to her role as a Caregiver, which positively impacts each client she cares for and leaves them smiling nearly every day.
Berhan sets out with many goals each day, but there is always one single priority – leaving the client comfortable and happy. In fact, she won’t head out for the day without knowing they are in a good place. This in turn inspires her to remain diligent with a selfless attitude and keeps her light shining bright.
One of Berhan’s favorite parts of her job is not only getting to know the clients, but for them to get to know her on a deeper level too. While some clients may be facing difficult circumstances, she believes that when clients learn more about her own background, it can help them feel more comfortable and create a calmer environment. Some of her favorite memories with clients include recounting stories about each other’s families.
Maintaining her positive and uplifting approach towards clients takes a lot of energy and, to keep herself going, Berhan thinks it’s important to start every day on the right foot. She knows how much her clients rely on her and how important it is to keep herself healthy and balanced, so she always makes time for the things she enjoys most, such as relaxing with her husband and family, and keeping herself busy and active outside of work.
