About Lori

I very much enjoy providing support and care in a home setting. I have many references from individual's guardians and will provide these phone numbers upon request. My most core values are insuring respect and dignity. I believe all people have the right to make choices in all areas of their life. I encourage people to follow their care plan and work in tandem with them rather than dictate what they need to do. I understand that many people receiving care may feel loss of control in their lives and I work hard to understand their interests, concerns, and ideas and I am very creative in helping them to have experiences that fulfill those desires. I tend to befriend people in my care. I very quickly develop caring relationships. I am a person of faith and believe providing all of the above is a ministry in my life.
