About Lauren

I have always enjoyed helping other people live their lives to the fullest extent possible. I have compassion for the elderly and disabled and my goal is make their lives easier and more fulfilling for as long as possible.

I am a very friendly, caring, and out going person. I love and enjoy working with elderly people and have a compassion to see there well being. I became a caregiver because my deceased husband fell very ill and needed someone to take care of him. By stepping up to this challenge, it gave me the skills and knowledge that a caregiver needs in the field. I have also learned a lot by working with different individuals hands on, over time. What i enjoy the most about being a caregiver is seeing my patients happy and enjoying life because they have someone by their side step by step.
