About Lisa

I became a caregiver because my grandmother had cancer and I wanted to learn how to take care of her, she was a survivor for 40 year, I admired how the nurses and the patient care techs took care of her. So I wanted to give back. The best thing I love about this job is seeing the transformation of ones being. It brings joy to my heart to see someone smile and laugh. I have a private duty case now and the daughter said her mother is so happy now and enjoy when I come a take care of her that is a personal achievement especially when you are taking care of someones mother. My name is Lisa Council I am 49 years old but I look every bit of 29, I am outgoing and love to have fun with my residents, they are such a joy. I have no children, but I am married. I am also a licensed cosmetologist and medical assistance, so I do spoil my residents. I pamper them male and female.I have been to college haven't received my degree yet but I am working on it. I presently work at Piedmont Newnan Hospital on the Orthopedic floor.I reside in Palmetto Ga. I am looking for that one on one care instead of 18 patients as a load, It pays well but I am not getting the satisfaction of what my purpose is for doing direct patient care. That is why I choose to do Private Duty.

The reason I decided to become a Caregiver was very simple for me. I just love being able to help others, and give companionship for those people who just need quality professional TLC. What I like most about being a Caregiver is the constant reward of knowing that I play a very important roll in providing care to someone that is unable to care for themselves. A personal achievement of mine was to overcome the fear of public speaking, so I decided to become a CPR Instructor for the American Heart Association. This allowed me to face my fear and practice my teaching skills to ultimately conquer my fear of public speaking. I am also patient, dependable, kind, friendly, and hardworking. I love to take the initiative when doing anything, and I'm always thinking of what can be done to improve any situation. At the end of the day, I am just a Caregiver.
