About Lisa

I became a caregiver by accident 8 years ago and I love it. I had been a medical assistant for 11 years and found myself driven to work with elder patients. I found that many need a little help to remain at home and I like helping them to do so.I am pursuing a registered nurse's degree and plan to use it helping elders to remain at home.
