About Lois

I've always had a desire to work in the medical field. My original goal was to become a neonatal nurse but family responsibilities prevented me from investing the time needed. Being a care-giver has allotted me the opportunity to fulfill that desire in a different capacity. Just knowing that I have had a positive impact on the lives of others gives me a sense of pride and satisfaction.
