She has developed meaningful relationships with the senior clients and loves them as family. Whenever it is necessary, Serita drives one of the senior access vans herself to take the clients to the grocery store. “Every time I do a ride for one of my clients, I feel better. My secret to staying happy and reducing stress is giving back to others through volunteering.”
