About Laporcha

I enjoy caring for others because it brings me joy to help those who are unable to care for themselves. Being a caregiver has taught me a lot about different diseases, disabilities, and interacting with diverse individuals. A previous client of mine had diabetes; and her blood sugar levels were very hard to maintain; however as I worked with her over the months with diet and exercise her blood sugar levels began to stabilize. I was extremely proud of her. I am a hardworking compassionate woman who has always loved to care for others. I also volunteered at Palmdale Regional Medical Center for a year.

Beautiful job. Thank you for helping me get mom to her Dr appointment on Thursday. She was very relaxed and happier with you there. We had a great time laughing and picking on each other. You're the BEST👍🏻

I am a happy, healthy, compassionate, loyal, patient, loving person who found my caregiver calling late in life. I am 66 years old and have been doing this for a little over 12 years and love what I do. I started when a couple different neighbors of mine were ill and didn't have any family to help them. I had my CPR CERT so I said why not and when they were doing better I decided to make this my work. (Experience through: IHSS, CARE.COM, CARELINX & CAMBRIAN HOME CARE) The first client I had was in very bad shape when I met him, diabetes, renal failure, heart failure, living on his own, not keeping up with his meds or taking his insulin properly. I called his Dr. got him on a med schedule and with the right food, TLC and exercise he did quite well. Since then I have had several different clients, one was on hospice and others I took to Dr appts., med Mgmt. , meal prep, errands and companionship. I'm looking now because one of my clients I had been caring for since 2015, unfortunately she passed away early November. I enjoy my work and I work very hard! Thank you so much, Cindy

I believe that I'm a great caregiver because I take pride in my work and I treat my clients as I would want my family treated. I know that it's about more than just providing care to the client, but also peace of mind to the clients family members, especially those who were or are the primary caregivers themselves. I understand that working together as a team with the family is important, but knowing when and how to manage a situation is equally as important. I love my work and making sure that my clients have the highest obtainable quality of life is important to me.
