About Lucretia

I am a dedicated, compassionate home care provider with over 5 years experience. I am patient, as well as thorough and efficient. I believe in being on time and utilizing my time to the best of my ability. I became a home care provider after caring for my mother and sister who were both battling cancer. I realized that after treatments they were in need of assistance with basic activities of daily living. I enjoy helping people regain a sense of normalcy in their life. It gives me joy to contribute to my clients good health and well being.

    I have been a caregiver for approximately 6 years now. I decided to become a caregiver because i believe that everyone deserves a good quality of life. I had a grandmother who lived to be 112 years of age and i took on the responsibility of caring for her. i am very compassionate about what i do and i do it to the best of my knowledge. My passion in life is to care for others, helping those who need to get better to be better and also for those who just need the companionship and making the transition easy for them. i have worked with various clients of all different age and i love what i do. I am a graduate student with a degree in psychology and planning on furthering my education. i have a 6 year old daughter and i am very family oriented. I am fully dedicated to my work and i guarantee my employers will have no regrets.

    I became a Caregiver after over 27 years of being a Certified Nursing Assistant and Patient Care Tech. Although I enjoy working in LTC facilities, Hospitals, and Rehabilitation facilities I really enjoy the ability to give one-on-one care....it is very personable. I pride myself on the care and attentiveness I share with my clients. I am CPR certified, am knowledgeable in gluecose care, Catherter and colostomy care. and again I have worked in the care of the elderly over 27 years.
