About Lakrisha

I have assisted many clients with a variety of healthcare needs over twenty years by implementing a high level of passion and understanding into everything I do.I pride myself not only on the help I provide but also on ability to listean.Not only did I choose this proffesion but it also chose me.I was raised in a small nurseing home setting where my GreatGrandmother provided housing and care for eldery indivisuals that didnt have family or wasnt able to take care of themselves.In my life time Ive worked in numerous fields but not one gave me the joy that I receive while being a caregiver.This is what i was chosen to do and the gift I was given.I fell as though Im helping someone that cant help there situation so I give clients all that I have in me ,all that I been taught and all the love they can handle .The thing that makes me the happiest is when clients refer me to other potential clients then I tell myself job well done.

I was an RN for 14 years predominately in oncology, 3 years in Hospice home health. I am the mother and caregiver of a 43 year old son with quadriplegic cerebral palsy so I am very experienced with disabilities and needed equipment. I cared for my mother, who had alzheimer's disease. I have been a church secretary for the last two years. I am a very compassionate, caring person with a positive personality and a good sense of humor. I want to be a Caregiver.

I became a caregiver because I love helping other people. I just feel like its my calling. I like to see people be happy and have a good quality of life and at the same time maintain a sense of independence as much as possible. I am proud to have raised two wonderful adult children and see them accomplish their goals. I am a certified CNA and have been in the health care field for 20 plus years and I enjoy working with people.
