About Laura

I have a very cherry disposition and get along great with people especially seniors. I have worked as a Caregiver for over 10 years, including 3 family members who were in Hospice. I am very organized, which makes me great with medication management. I always type list of medications, doctors, etc. for my clients. I have also set up in care doctors and podiatrist. I love to make people laugh and learn from them. I also have extensive experience with dementia. Pretty much I have done it all. I am very punctual and dependable. I take my responsibilities and I treat my clients as if they were my own family.
