About Lisa

I have always been very good with people. I like them and they like me. I have a good sense of humor and I appreciate the little things in life. I'm open and I like most things , so it's easier for me to relate with people. I've had years of experience working with a variety of specialized needs for my clients - from paralyzed to quadriplegic to dementia , COPD, falls and physical therapy, Etc. There's just something in my nature that people like having around. when they're not having such a great day or when life isn't going their way, I can usually bring a smile to their face and lighten their mood. Maybe it's my cooking I don't know!!. Whatever it is my goal is to make sure that they have a positive attitude and look forward to tomorrow, knowing that they're safe and.protected by my embracing heart.

I like the idea of being able to help someone so they're able to stay in their own home. I have a great time with my clients, and I make sure they are comfortable, and in a happy mood and all their needs are addressed. It gives me satisfaction knowing at the end of my day I have helped a fellow human being to make their days better, and that's a great feeling.

Nursing is a calling for me. Making sure that people receive the best possible care I am able to provide is my most important goal. Safety first always, compassion, dignity, privacy, respect and hope are all important attribute's that I find essential to good nursing care. It is a meaningful gratifying experience to know that I can add to someone's life and possibility bring goodness when health issues can be a challenge and so often depressing. Good nursing requires being completely present while in someone's home or in a facility. My standards are no cell phones while at work, no clock watching, and I always address people with respect by using MR.or Mrs. (last name) until I am encouraged otherwise. Using Mama or Papa and other terms of endearment are not appropriate for me personally in professional healthcare. I use old fashion "yes Mam, yes Sir, no Mam, no Sir. and in an audible understandable language. CNA #00648980
