Caregiver of the month of February: Tyrell Murphy

Tyrell has been working with ExpertCare for the past year and has made a positive impact on those he’s worked with. He’s being recognized by ExpertCare for being caring, compassionate and excellent at redirecting when in challenging situations. Never has he given up when faced with a challenge. Instead, he tries to put himself in that individual’s shoes, adapt and try harder to make the situation better. The Supports Coordination for one of the families shared feedback with ExpertCare letting us know Tyrell made such a difference in the consumer’s life and his behaviors have dramatically decreased.  ExpertCare truly appreciates everything he does and is very proud to have him represent ExpertCare in the field. Thank you for your hard work and dedication in changing the lives of others.

Natalie has been providing exceptional care for multiple consumers over the past four years. She’s being nominated by ExpertCare staff for being compassionate, reliable and a great problem solver.

Our consumer families have always had nothing but great things to say about the care she provides. ExpertCare truly appreciates everything she does and is very proud to have her represent ExpertCare in the field. Thank you for your hard work and dedication in changing the lives of others.
