About Lori

The thing that makes me a great caregiver is I'm a very caring and patient person. I'm honest, dependable and very kind hearted. I got into home health a little over a year ago and currently work for two agencies. I've worked with the elderly and the disabled and with a couple of clients with dementia/Alzheimer's. I treat my clients with love the same way I would treat a family member and would hope that someone would treat my family member or myself. I feel sometimes I was destined to care for others because I seem to work in fields where I care for others like childcare.

I have had a lot of life experience that makes me uniquely qualified. My family refers to me as the safety officer as I am hyper vigilant to my environment. I naturally express care for everyone around me. I have cared for my mother in my home in the last years of her life. I did all her hospice care before her death in 1999. I love helping and caring for adults in need. I have helped many friends after surgeries during recovery. I am interested in temporary positions like recovery time care or any temporary houshold duties or shuttling. To give caregivers a break might be the perfect temporary position.
