About Lisa

I have been a CNA off and on for 25 plus years in both Nebraska and Iowa. I recently chose to do home healthcare because I really enjoy assisting one on one. As a caregiver I am able to really get to know the person I'm assisting. I love hearing stories my clients have told me about their lives before they were needing assistance. I am proud to be a home health care provider because it is a passion of mine to help people. And when I see a client happy because I was able to assist with things they aren't able to do for themselves anymore or just need a little assistance that makes me feel good. I follow the golden rules of dignity and respect for each client. I follow the HIPPA rules also a care plan.
