About Laurie

I am a good care giver because I love helping people. I also want to go to school to be a registered nurse and caregiving is great experience. I took care of both my grandparents on hospice my grandpa had lung cancer I helped feed him change him give him medications and make sure he was comfortable. My grandma had a stroke she was paralyzed on one side and couldn't walk I had to dress her feed her put her into bed give her medications also and when she did fall once in a while I was calm enough to call for help. I think I'm a great caregiver because I had experience at a very young age and am compassionate about it.
