About Lisa

I started being a caregiver, when I was younger. It started with caring for my mom. She was diagnosed with cancer. I stopped working to care for her. When she passed, I started taking care of my dad. When he passed I took care of my brother. When he passed , I took care of my sister. So all my adult life I have cared for a loved one. While I was caring for my mother, I went to school and became a licensed practical nurse. Caring for people has been what I enjoy doing. I treat all clients like family. I am a caring and compassionate person. God has blessed me with helping hands.

    What makes me a great caregiver I always seek the best needs for the clients. I'm passionate about my work. I'm loving, compassionate, and caring. I do the best I can to make the client feel comfortable. I always wanted to be a caregiver, mainly because my mother inspired me so much. She was a caregiver (nurse) for a long time. When she became I'll I became her caregiver and gave her all the comfort, love, and nourishment she always gave to her clients and others.

    I became a caregiver by nature. My mother died when I was 10 and I became the caregiver of my 7 siblings. Also, several members of my family have become ill and I have had to care for them as well. My husband, whom has died, live with Huntington disease for several years. I was his caregiver. When my brother had a stroke, he didn't trust anyone else so I cared for him until he was able to maintain on his own. My son, developed heart failure. I immediately stepped in and took total care of him. Through my diligence, he is now a new man; maintaining his heart condition with enjoyable life! I enjoy caring for others because it gives me a satisfaction to know they are going to receive the best of care, because I will always give my best. It is the way I would want to be treated with love and respect.
